Ragging,an academic evil,literally means teasing in a light vein,cracking jokes but not at the expense of others. Traditionally,innocent ragging involves senior students making the freshers dance,sing songs,enact something etc. But presently ragging has earned notoriety as the newcomers in engineering and medical colleges are building up 'ragging phobia'. The modern trend of ragging is obnoxious. Students are physically exploited,mentally harassed in several ways. They are often beaten up ruthlessly just for fun leading to major injuries. Ragging is said to be an ordeal to make students fit for the struggle for existence. But in reality,it is a survival of medieval barbarism. Many students leave study or even choose suicidal paths out of utter shame and frustration. In most of the colleges, authorities take a lenient view of this matter. But no argument in favor of this brutality should be indulged. Concerted efforts of the college authorities,government and the students are needed to mark the end of this miscreant practice.

A paragraph on:The importance of unity in the society
Unity is a great virtue and humanity of the mankind.
Generally a community,a society or a nation is built up by the dint of unity.
Presently when almost every nation is suffering from fatal diseases like
malice-jealousy-communalism-terrorism,unity is highly needed to bring back the
lost rhythm of our society. In the ancient era,the aboriginal people learned to
be united on their insistance to survive. The civilized people tried to
maintain this harmony until the thought of self-interest engulfed them. A society
empowered with unity can protect itself from any evil power.But a society
without unity cannot survive. Unity not only means to live unitedly but also
requires the wish for social welfare,to respect each other's morality,to stand
by others in their trouble. But in reality we observe the less of these
qualities of forming an ideal society. There are the more of some adverse signs
standing in the way of unity. The former stallwarts of our society dreamt to
find unity in diversity which is still unfulfilled. So,it is the prime time to
realise the importance and necessity of unity earnestly and to create mass
awarness about it in order to save the society from utter destruction.
