SPEECH ON UNITY IN DIVERSITY – 2

Hello All, Good Evening!
Thanks for coming here and being a part of this discussion. It feels an honour to see you all from different fields gathered here. Today’s discussion is on one of the most relevant topics ‘Unity in Diversity’ that is ‘Anekta Mein Ekta,’ that is synonymous with India.
Today, I would like to share my view on what exactly this term ‘Unity in Diversity’ means. Doesn’t it feel strange when we hear the word Unity – which means being one and Diversity – which means differences, together in one phrase. Yes, it does feel! It makes us wonder how it is feasible that there is a common factor to seemingly heterogeneous things.
It is completely true that Unity in Diversity means the integration of differences; it means the oneness or togetherness in spite of the presence of diverse or different concepts. In the simplest way if I say, it means collating multiple types of things as one.
The best example of explaining Unity in Diversity is talking about the country ‘India’. Just one word India, and massive number of things quickly come to our mind. Isn’t it? Yes, indeed! Different castes, different cultures, different religion, different languages, different customs, different foods and what not! Clubbing of these varied or diverse things in one umbrella is the assimilation of differences and suits so well as an example of: Unity in Diversity.
Binding people of all religions in the bond of humanity is one of the greatest characteristics of India that fits the best as a point of clubbing the differences together at one angle. Visit any office, any school any market or any institution in India and you see the bundle of traditions or castes sitting and working right next to each other, in a spirit of wholeness.
Each diverse bits and pieces united in one bundle – India. This diverse spiral in India leads to it being one of the most famous tourist spot and attracts continuous flow of travellers throughout the year.
Hence if I conclude on my example of India, it’s true that it satisfies on the best parameters of being the country amongst all that is the most integrated, united and a perfect mix of different cultural and traditional flavours. It, indeed, is one of the countries in which people live with peace and harmony despite having multi-cultural systems.
Okay, give it a thought, if you ask a small kid, he will also agree that seeing a single colour on a sheet does not look that attractive in front of that other sheet which has a mix of two or more colours. Similarly, any place that has a combination or a blend of widely spread cultures or traditions seems to be more of an attraction worldwide in comparison to others.
Friends, it is very heartening to see Unity in Diversity around us. Hope you found this discussion useful!
Thank You!
