1. MAKE IN INDIA
– By Neha Introduction:
Make in India is the name of the initiative by the government of India to give more incentive to business (both in India
and abroad) to manufacture goods (eg: automobiles) on Indian shores. To lure businesses to set shop in India, the
government of India plans to cut excessive formality and routine which involves setting a business in India.
Goals of Make in India:
Make in India intends to create employment for the youth of India and help bring best practices to Indian business. The
initiative also aims at high-quality standards and minimizing the impact on the environment. The initiative hopes to
attract capital and technological investment in India.
Impact:
We observe that India’s rank in ease-in-doing business has improved. Further, the manufacturing sector has seen an
upswing with key sectors such as defence seeing huge participation from foreign investors.
Suggestions:
Make in India’s success lies in making the small and medium enterprises foster. Thus, 'Make in India' should not only
focus on big business but also on the neglected small and medium enterprises (SMEs) so that rural India can reap the
benefit as much as the developed parts of India. Further, a domestic business must be protected from big multinational
chains, so that equitable growth is ensured at all fronts.
2. How to Make Women Feel Safe
by Karuna
India is not a country where women can move without fear of being stared at, molested or discriminated against. This is
a shameful thing and hard to believe, but it would prove right if we go by what we read in the newspapers today and

For this, it is very important to change the male mindset in its attitude towards women. Education startsat home. The
boys should be taught to respect and empathise with other human beings irrespective of gender.
In addition to this, severe laws must be made to deal with eve-teasers, molesters and rapists. These laws should also be
strictly implemented. There should be a zero-tolerance policy in cases of domestic violence against women. The most
important step to be taken is to educate women, provide them equal opportunities, and equip them with self-defence
techniques. There should also be an increase in security to ensure thesafety of women at public places.

3. Simple Pleasures of life
.... What is happiness? Is it a commodity that can be bought by paying a high price? Surely not. It is a feeling which is
attained. We attain it according to our nature. The cause of sadness and happiness is within a person and not in the
circumstances. We have forgotten to enjoy life. We don’t live but survive. To survive we work like a machine. We want
to earn more than we need. And the irony is that we are not able to enjoy our hard-earned money. We earn, we save, and
we die paying huge hospital bills with our hard-earned money. We should learn to live in the present moment. We must
start finding pleasures in simple things. Like reading a story to children, reading a book of our choice, going to the park,
or smelling the aroma of flowers. We should find time to go out to watch a movie with family and to help someone with
