Light the lamp of education in every home

Deepawali is one of the most popular festival of India. It's a festival of lights. The houses and shops are cleaned painted and decorated to welcome the goddess Lakshmi who is believed to give prosperity and wealth. Children like any other festivals are more enthusiastic for crackers, sweets and fun. But this is not the case in every home. There are many poor people who cannot afford it in proper taste and spirit due to lack of money since they are poor. we feel pity for them but do or care little for their upliftment.The festival of light will be more brighter and we too will enjoy it with more fun if each home will be lighted, decorated and has sweets, crackers and new clothes especially for the young ones. To make this dream into a reality we must do one task i.e we should light the lamp or diya of education in each and every home.This is a huge task because half of our children are out of school. This work can’t be totally left on the shoulders of government alone. This is the responsibility of all the people of society. We must ensure that each child is educated in true sense for or own better future. This is the only solution to many problems like backwardness and poverty.Unfortunately India is considered to be one of the poor country across the globe. Majority of the people are living life below the poverty line and hence festival of Diwali has little meaning for them. This is so because the distribution of wealth is highly misappropriate in our country. The corruption is the main cause of this misappropriation. this condition could be checked and countered with true education. Education is the power and the weaker section of our society can only be empowered if we provide them this weapon. This will make them more aware, informed, and they will be knowing their rights and duties. This will help them in not improving their condition but also in making our society a better place to survive and prosper.So, to make Deepawali prosperous and happy for all if we spread the light of education to each house hold.
