1. Duty towards my Country Essay 2 (150 words)
We are all citizens of one country or the other. We acquire citizenship of our country generally
by virtue of our birth. But to be a good citizen requires a lot of training and understanding. As
the subject of a country, every citizen has some duties and he enjoys at the same time certain
rights.
Duty towards country is having moral commitments and performing all the individual or group
responsibilities. It is must be understood by each and every citizen of the country. India is a
country which believes ‘unity in diversity’ where people of more than one religions, casts, creed
and languages live together. It is a country famous all across the world for its culture, tradition
and historical heritages so we should respect all the religions.
A good citizen, therefore, is one who is always broad minded. He must, if living in India,
consider himself an Indian first and anything else afterwards. He is ready even to shed his blood
for the honour and glory of his country. A good citizen has the good of his country at heart. To
raise his country to a higher level of civilization must be his aim. He must not forget that the
future, no less than the present, is always lined with the past.
A good citizen must keep the welfare of his town or city or village foremost in his mind at the
time of elections. He should understand the existing educational and other institutions of his
country and make efforts to bring about desirable improvements. He must love his neighbours.
He must be sympathetic, broad-minded and generous.
In this way, a good citizen should always be ready to forget and forgive. In a word, he should be
a perfect gentleman.
There is a big gap between rich and poor people. Rich people do not understand and perform
their responsibilities towards poor people. They forget their responsibility of economical
growth in the country which is possible by eliminating poverty from the country.
We must try to keep our sorrunding neat and clean. By fulfilling the above said responsibilities a
person can be good citigen.
