Question

Answer the following in paragraph:

“Unity in Diversity”, Explain.

Answer 1

India is a vast country with a diversity of physical characteristics.

Diversity in Natural Phenomena:-

1. India has unique landforms ranging from the highest peaks to the lowest plains. In north India, Mount Godwin Austin, otherwise known as Mt. K2 is the highest peak of India and coastal plains are the lowest in South India.
2. The Climate varies from tropical to temperate zone. Mawsynram in Meghalaya receives the highest amount of rainfall whereas the Thar desert receives very low rainfall.
3. We have wet dense tropical forest on the Western Ghats, Mangrove trees in the Sundarbans of West Bengal, and the shrubs and sparse vegetation in the Thar desert.
4. The diversity of the physical environment and climate has made India an ideal habitat for varieties of flora and fauna.

Diversity in Natural Phenomena:-

India is a secular country with total freedom of worship. People follow Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Sikhism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Zoroastrianism with cultural diversities.

Unity in Diversity:-

In spite of its physical, religious, and racial varieties, the ‘Indian Culture’ unites all people. Hence India is known for its “Unity in diversity”.

People shed all their differences and stand together when is a crisis. The best examples are Kargil invasions and natural calamities like floods and Tsunami. Even if we differ in many factors, we are all one in the fact we are Indians.
