The crab and the frog

-

 Once upon a time, a crab wanted to cross a river. But he doesn't know how to swim. He saw a frog. The crab asked to the frog,"My friend, I want to cross this river.Will you help me?" The frog said,"But how? You will bite me." "It's true. But I will not bite those who help me."

So, the innocent frog carried the crab on its back and crossed the river. But the crab bit the frog. The frog cried in pain and said,"Why did you bite me? You promised not to bite me." The wicked crab laughed and replied,"It's my nature to bite. It was your fault that you trusted me, foolish frog."

Moral: Never trust wicked beings.

Child education

-
 "Children are the future citizens of the country" makes sense. You know that some children are child labours. Yes, you know that. But why? Why some children are child labours. The reason is poverty. Yes, poverty is the reason of child labour. Because of poverty, parents can't feed their children. Suppose, a man with his wife and his daughter lives in a village. Now, this man is extremely poor. He can't feed himself and also his daughter. So, he went for work to earn money. He also engaged his daughter in agricultural work. So, this is what we call child labour. But this is wrong. We should not engage children in labour work. Education is very important for 3 to 18 years children. So what did the government do? It started building free schools, colleges and universities. But then also some parents are not sending their children to school. Why? Because if their children go to school, who will do the work? Finally, the government started the Anganwadi system. It said,...

Whispers from the Past

-
 In a quiet Indian village, whispers of an unsettling tale echoed through generations. It was the story of betrayel, a forbidden friendship, and a relentless spirit seeking justice. Twelve-year-old Aanya lived with her family in a quaint house passed down through the years. Her brother, Arjun, had left the village to study abroad, becoming the first foreign-educated youth from their community. His friendship with Meera, the daughter of their maid, had not gone unnoticed. The villagers and, more prominently, their grandfather, who was the village chief, had frowned upon this unconventional bond. Many years ago, Aanya's grandfather had taken drastic measures to end the friendship between Arjun and Meera. On a fateful night, in the shadows of the ancestral house, he had taken Meera's life, severing her connection with Arjun forever. Now, Aanya's sister-in-law, Anjali, newly wedded into the family, found herself inexplicably possessed by a vengeful female spirit – the tormented...

Indus Valley civilisation

-
 The Indus valley civilisation, also known as the Harappan civilisation or Indus civilisation, was a Bronze Age in the northwestern regions of South Asia, lasting from 3300 BCE to 1300 BCE, and in its mature form from 2600 BCE to 1900 BCE.  It covered an area of one million square kilometres. It had the largest population and territory of all the Bronze Age civilisations like Mesopotamia, Egypt and ancient China.  Like almost all early civilisations the Indus Civilisation grew around dank river valleys. Their farmers were able to grow a massive food surplus along the banks of the Indus and Ghaggar-Hakra rivers. But we have no evidence of  Kings or priests for the Harappans. No royal tombs or palaces. No evidence for a state religion. No temples, pyramids or ziggurats. No signs of an army, weapons, slaves or powerful political capitals. One of the defining features of Harappan culture is how planned their cities and towns were. They tended to focus on 3 main aspects l...
