Introduction

    A good neighbour plays an important part in social life. These days man has become so dependent that he cannot live alone or isolated. He must live with good understanding. with the people who live around.

His name and occupation

    Mr. Santosh Kumar Mishra is my neighbour. His house is next to ours at College Square. He works as a doctor in the Head Qrs. Hospital while my father works as an engineer in the Public Health Department. Both Mr. Mishra and my father are intimate friends. After the office hours, they sit together and discuss current affairs everyday.

My friendship with his children

    Mr. Mishra has three children and his eldest daughter is of my age. Her name is Seema. She and I belong to the same class of Puri Zilla School. We both are the best friends as our parents. We go to school together and play together after school hours. We are full of love and affection for each other and we hope there will be nothing that separates us from one another. 

Family relationship

    Both the families are small in size and as neighbours we have a very good relationship. Younger brothers of Seema have free access to our house and my younger brothers also frequently visit the house of Mr. Mishra. On festive days we invite each other and in some cases we observe the ceremony jointly.m

    We never feel separate. When the family of Mr. Mishra is in trouble, we help them whole-heartedly and they also do so at the time of our need. We share our joys and sorrows. 

Conclusion

    Good neighbourliness depends upon good understanding and sincere sacrifice. As we are open to each other, there is no misunderstanding among us and we lead a happy life together.

Introduction

    Now-a-days India is facing a lot of problems. One of them is the problem of unemployment. The problem is increasing very quickly. It is a serious problem. The problem of unemployment is the mother of naxalism, extortion, maoism and such other anti-social activities.

What is unemployment

    The meaning of unemployment is the lack of a job for those persons who are seeking work. There are two types of unemployed: (i) educated, (ii) uneducated'. Unemployment among the educated is increasing very fast. The uneducated get some work somehow. The educated people are taught to do sophisticated work. They don't want to work with ordinary labourers who are illiterate. So a number of people are becoming burdens upon their families as they have no work to do.

What is under-employment

    Under-employment is insufficient employment. When a graduate is forced to do the job of a matriculate, he is under-employed. Some graduates try to earn a livelihood through tuition. But they don't get enough tuition. Their time is not fully utilized. This is under-employment, Usually our farmers don't work for the whole year. They are also under-employed.

Reasons of unemployment

    There are several reasons for unemployment. The first is rapid population growth. Our country is unable to provide decent jobs to so many people. Secondly our cottage industries are nearly destroyed due to the establishment of big factories. The products of cottage industries are not saleable now-a-days. So the village artisans are without jobs. Thirdly, the abolition of the caste system is also one of the causes of unemployment. In ancient times there was division of labour among different castes. The descendants of a particular caste used to do the profession of their family. They didn't have to seek employment. When the Govt. assumed the role of job-provider, the social fabric was destroyed. This resulted in large scale unemployment. Fourthly, our system of education is defective. It produces clerks who hate manual labour. so they become unemployed if they don't find any official work. Fifthly, computerisation is also creating unemployment. One computer is able to do the work of several persons. So one computer operator is gobbling up the jobs of many people.

Measures to solve the problem

    Careful planning is required to solve the problem of unemployment. The outlook of young boys and girls ought to be changed. The education system should be thoroughly revamped. Emphasis must be given on vocational education. Cottage industries should be revised. The villagers are to be given incentives to carry on their family trade. Large factories should be discouraged. Small scale industries must be financed. The computerisation process should be slowed down.

Steps to be taken by the govt.

    The Govt. must take proper steps to solve the unemployment problem. Technical and vocational education must start from school level. Globalisation must stop. The exodus from villages to towns must also stop. Cottage industries and the agricultural sector must be given priority. Mixed farming must be promoted. The private sector must be given sufficient freedom to expand. Any restriction on the Private sector must be lifted. Unemployment and under-employment lead to social unrest. This must always be kept in mind.

Introduction

    The twenty-first century has started. In the last century we have seen a great deal of changes in the world. It is high time to think how India will fare in this century.

Position of India in the 21st century

    India is likely to occupy an important position in the world in the new century. She will undoubtedly be the torch-bearer of Asia. Most of the countries of the world will try to have friendly relations with India. She will also have good relations with her neighbouring countries. Indo-pak relations will improve. There will be free trade and communication between India and Pakistan.

Border dispute

    The border dispute with China and Pakistan will surely be solved in this century. A dispute is never likely to continue for 100 years. The LOC in Kashmir will be the permanent line of demarcation. It may take another 10 to 15 years to solve the issue. But there will be some kind of settlement. Similarly India and China will succeed in settling their border disputes in the coming century and both will have very good relations with each other. The new century will see India and China as good friends. In the same way India's relations with Nepal, Bhutan, Burma and Bangladesh will improve considerably.

Progress in scientific field

    In the scientific field India will become the most advanced country in Asia. In this sphere she will overtake Japan. She will not need to borrow technical knowledge from any country of the world. She will make wonderful progress in space technology. She may send some scientists to the moon for exploration.

Progress in educational field

    In this century India will be in the front in the educational field. Technical and vocational training will become an integral part of education. There will be fewer educated unemployed. The country will be free from illiteracy.

Social and cultural field

    There will be great progress in the social and cultural field. There will be great development in the sphere of music, dance, painting and sculpture. Women will be more powerful. But the quota system will create strife in the society. The upper class youth will revolt against the quota system. Our short-sighted politicians will not be able to foresee the dangers ahead. In spite of all the progress, there will be no end to violence. When the meritorious will be deprived of employment due to the quota system, they will rise in revolt. With the increase of their numbers, the cases of caste-based violence will also increase.

Conclusion

    Our constitution guarantees equal right to all. The politicians will always try to bend the rules to suit their needs. They will hanker after power and money. They would instigate violence for their own gains. Most of the politicians will be dishonest. They will even try to disobey the court's orders. This will create a strange situation. There may be violent strife. In order to avoid all these, the quota system must be abolished. The deserving youth must be given their due. Talent should be respected. The society must be free from unnecessary Govt. control. In this way only India can meet the challenge of the 21st century.

Introduction

    The education which imparts training to handle and operate different kinds of machines is called technical education. The present system of education is basically theoretical. This does not serve the growing population well. This creates unemployed educated young men and women. The modern age is the age of science and technology. It can also be called the age of machines. Modern thinkers say that technical education can only sustain the present day society.

The advantage of machines

    In the past man used to do everything manually. He walked from place to place. He tilled the land, with crude chisels. In course of time, man invented the wheel. Gradually bicycles, rickshaws, motor-cycles, cars, buses, trains, aeroplanes and ships were invented. The latest inventions are jet-planes, rockets, and submarines. Through these machines man has become able to conquer time and distance.

    The farmers are now cultivating their lands with the help of tractors. Grass is cut by machines. The doctors are taking the help of computers in diagnosis. There are mills for grinding corn and weaving cloth. Rooks are printed by machines. The list is very long. The machines have made life easier. Manual labour is reduced day by day. The machines do labour for man. One machine can do the job of several men. By mechanical procedure, production has increased manifold. It has helped in making the country prosperous.

The importance of technical education

    Machines are manned by mechanics and technicians. Technical education is essential for producing skilled technicians. Technical education makes a cour v industrially progressive. Technicians do not go through the trauma of unemployment. They are self-employed. Technically educated persons are always more skillful than ordinary persons. Skilled workforce is a great asset for the country.

Benefits of technical education

    The present system of education in India is a clerk-making system. The graduates produced by this system are good for nothing. They lack creative ability of any kind. They hate manual labour. These type; of graduates prefer to do file work. File work doesn't make the country rich. It only delays the process of development. Technical education is based on practical orientation. Technicians are field workers. They build the nation. They invent new tools to suit the needs. Technical education is very beneficial for the development of the country.

The place of Orissa in technology

    In the technical map of India, Orissa is not an advanced state. It is a poor state in spite of great natural resources. The reason behind Orissa's poverty is the shortage of technical infra-structure. There are good artisans in rural India who can make wonderful things. The Pata (silk) sarees and terracotta figures can be cited as examples. Rural Industrialisation is necessary for the development of Orissa, Cottage Industry must be encouraged instead of big mills. The cottage industry provides employment to a large number of people. The rural worker must have access to technical education. They must be given incentives for the same.

Conclusion

    Every man must know some kind of technical work. So technical education must be a part of higher education. It must start from school level. Manual work must be encouraged from childhood. The clerk-producing system of education must be replaced with technical education. This can only eradicate poverty and make the state rich.
