Essay on first theme

Firstly this is my first essay. I am not very good in English, however I managed somehow in a very average manner.
                        Essay
It's always right as well as good to asking anything by anyone or by society for the sake of individual and society. 
If everyone focuses on answers not on questions then he or she is definitely going in comfort zone rather to face reality. 

As everyday life passes, normally the person wants to get comfort. Whether it's academic or practical life, questions are not only being asked today but it was from very ancient Indian culture. 
The best and the suitable example is of Budhha. And the word enlightenment itself got its true meaning from the life of Budhha. It was his curiosity to know the truth of life. He asked the question to himself and to get answer of this during whole process he could know the truth. Here if he didn't ask question or not he think of it, how the holy Buddhism could get its importance. 
The ways by many saints were/are dependent on the question.
Actually in whole life we always bound to asking due to our curiosity as well as our needs.

The asking of questions in God Yam with Nachiketa as well as in our epic granth Mahabharata or Ramayan has very importance. The best of the all holy events is Gita Saar, in which all the questions related to each and every part were asked. There are so many examples in history. 
The education system is fully dependent on asking. However, in our country our education system mostly favoured the rota system rather than learning based on questions i.e.  what is thinking not how to think. However recently New education policy has motto of learning on questioning. 
The most and perfect, the importance of questioning may be seen crystal clear in all the revolutions. It is the essence of democracy. The vulnerable section is normally derived from getting its part. The questioning power helped and provided there part. 

Even we all know the corruption is a main route in governing of Indian system whether through government mode or private or mix. The effect of questioning in this regard may be definitely understood by Anna Hazare movement.

Actually the democracy is fully dependent on it. Therefore the RTI act was passed in accordance with the soul of questioning. 

There are so much hurdles also exist against questioning in that democracies whose societies are not matured or living under influence of so called politician or any other powerful persona. As the caste system is a curse in India which has become necessary evil for livelihood. The effect of this may be felt in most of the arenas. Whether it is your selection or your promotion in jobs or using equity and in getting equality etc in society. Because the Indian democracy couldn't become mature. The truth always kept in secret forcefully or intentionally by many sections of responsible society. The RTI like weapons are losing its importance. It may be seen various incident of murders of RTI activists. Also the data of pending complaints and appeals before the CIC. Also everyone knows how the seats of information commissioners are being vacant and how their powers are curtailed. It is not only part of government but also of society that produces this type of situations. 
The judiciary is an essential tool in democracy to provide the answer of why. In India it played important role in preserving of truth. However there are many hurdles also in front of judiciary. But the Indian judiciary successfully used its powers to mitigate these challenges. 

The science completely depends on questioning. It's the science that by virtue of questioning made many inventions and discoveries. Which has become unavoidable boon for the whole society. 

In above context, the power of questioning may be observed from history to present also to past and from view of society's sections as judiciary, many institutions, many struggles, etc. Also not only India but the whole world is definitely dependent on questioning. There are many examples in world like many revolutions and success of them revolutions depended on questioning. The countries got dependence by this tool. 

Mahatma Gandhi' s life is fully relied on essence of truth which can be felt various events as Satyagraha, Sarvodaya, etc movements. 
Therefore it is very much important to live with art of questioning especially in indian democracy and it's society, also at level of individuality.
