2nd topic

1. As people rely more and more on technology to solve problems, the ability of humans to think for themselves will surely deteriorate.

Grandmother was very much happy as there were few days left for the holi, all the sons, daughter in laws, grandchildren will gather at home and then she will give them a lot of love and will chat a lot. the day came and all came to grandhome but what is this all are sitting in the drying hall on the sofa with grandmother in central position, all have mobiles in their hand busy to wish their social media friend except grandmother. she felt more alone than before and became very much sad as people sitting in drawing hall are not thinking about themselves but heavily dependant on technology.

Introduction of technology is one of the fastest process which is changing the every aspect of human life, from dawn to dusk & night to morning a person uses a number of technological aspects as mobile, laptop, youtube, twitter, facebook, google and many more. This dependent on technology has captured the people almost entirely and a number of people cannot have a good day without technological tools even not able to think about themselves.

in medical field in past days there were many doctors who by inspection used to tell the peoples what the disease they have and easily used to prescribe the medicine.now a days when a patient goes to hospital doctors write a number of tests to them, patient run here and there for the test and expense a lot of money and at the end by analysing reports doctors give medicine, they do not rely on their capability they are thinking that technology is better than them.

when a birthday used to come people were gathering earlier to celebrate and pass a moment of joy, now they do not have even time to think the birthday dates because social media reminds the date of birthday of dear ones and also celebration is made on social media, almost no gathering and parties and any time if social media do not reminds birthday, people forget it shows how technology deteriorated the ability to think about themselves.

in childhood we used to play cricket, ride bicycles, kabaddi, kushti and many other games in the big grounds, in the current age we can see mostly children play these games in the virtual world on the computer simulation of the game, they are not able to think about the wellness of their health.

before few days people used to shop from markets near about, in this process they used to meet people in the society and used to walk which was better for their health but now there is age of e-market and from home many things can be bought by simply clicking on the computers, they are not able to think deteriorating social touch and the health benefit.

in agriculture there were many manual works in early days and people used to do those works which were beneficial for their health and many people used to get job now we have a number of automated machine which do these works easily, we are not able to think health benefit and reducing the number of employment because of heavy use of technology in in the different fields.

earlier there were simple post office the way of communication between people sitting far away, at that time people used to not only write addresses on notebook but also remember it, in presence scenario this and many other things replaced by telephone and now people are not able to remember the phone numbers of dear ones.

technology has intervened almost every aspect of life, it has become the part of life without it people feel lonely and of no work, it has heavily deteriorated the ability think about themselves, we need a balance life neither fully dependent on technology nor fully left the technology so that real pleasure of life can be enjoyed.

2- People who are the most deeply committed to an idea are also the most critical of it.

One day one of great scientist Newton was sitting in a apple garden, suddenly an apple fall on his head.He was angered but an idea came in his mind that why apple was fallen downward, why apple did fall only downward direction. Newton become deeply committed to this idea and started thinking after some time he has given a set of laws that were known as Laws of Gravity.Newton has become so much critical that till now anytime we discuss, do any gravitational research , it is incomplete without remembering him and taking a reference of his ideas.There are a number of example in scientific, social, different programmes and schemes where the people most deeply committed to an idea are also the most critical of it.

The phenomenon of photoelectric effect was known to people before a century, but it could not be explained by using present particle theory of light, then, Einstein came with new idea that light have dual nature both particle and wave and given quantum theory, a relation between wave and particle, he explained successfully the photoelectric effect and became so much critical that he was awarded nobel prise of physics in 1921.now a days a number projects are going on to capture solar energy most of which focussed on photoelectric effect given by Einstein

Recently Nandan Nilekani come with the idea of Aadhaar card which is a 12 digit identification no, the idea came into reality and government is using this 12 digit numbers in many of its schemes.This came to be very much helpful in curbing leakage in government welfare programmes, tracking the criminals, unique identification number, direct benefit transfer of subsidies, linking Aadhaar to mobile so that unwanted or terrorist may not be able to use different simcards and in many more programmes.But whenever any controversial of specific concern raises as recently, security related issues were raised then the Nandan Nilekani and his comment become very much critical.

PM announced to make india clean and came with and idea of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan on 2Oct 1914, this become government’s flagship programme and some sess were imposed called as Swachh Bharat cess and target were made to make millions of toilet to make country open defecation free by 2Oct 1919.it is targeted to join all the country in this scheme as a chain process of joining nine people by per person, as PM started the programme by himself adding nine imminent personality including Shashi Tharoor and Amitabh Bachchan.The idea was started by PM and now he has become very much critical for this programme as in a number of posters and advertising he is the face of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.

Our beloved father of nation, Mahatma Gandhi came with the idea of Satyagraha and nonviolent, in which he used to do peaceful protest against tyrant and became very much successful as in africa buy using this technique he could get Asiatic registration act there.In 9 January 1914 Mahatma gandhi came to india and used his technique against British, and was very much successful while champaran satyagraha, non cooperation movement, civil disobedient movement and in many more movements.Gandhi ji was most critical of his idea of satyagrah even now world remember him for his unique idea.

Bal Gangadhar Tilak came with idea of home rule and started home rule movement in 1916 against British government, during the movement he was very much critical leader, when he went to england the movement was derailed and stopped.It shows how the originator of idea ie. Tilak was so much critical for the movement.

However some time the idea originator become less critical as Idea of God Particle was given by bose and Einstein, idea of gravitational wave were given by Einstein before the century but these ideas became famous recently as experiment in CERN laboratory and detection of gravitational waves in LIGO system, and scientists involved in these event became most critical, but the it too does not undermine the originator of ideas.

superbly done
