प्रश्न
Why is it wrong to make a difference among friends who belong to a different class, colour or community?
उत्तर
A person is defined by his/her character and actions and not by his/her class, colour or community. We should treat everyone equally and remember that we are humans first. These social divisions are man-made and discrimination on the basis of them would be unjust. We should try to understand how we would feel in the other person’s place and should treat others as we would want to be treated.
