Deforestation Deforestation is one of the most serious problems all over the world & tremendously in our country. It means the act of cutting down or burning the trees of an area and it is increasing rapidly day by day. Men & trees are closely associated. They cannot be separated. Men get oxygen from trees and trees get carbon-di-oxide from men. They depend on each other for existence. So the people of whole country will face a great problem in near future. The most common causes of deforestation are cutting & burning down the forestland. People cut down trees for the sake of agriculture & habitation. But it has a negative effect on our environment. reforestation causes serious damage to the soil. Various types of birds & animals are leaving the place. Trees give shelter to birds & beasts, prevent soil erosion & beautify nature. It spoils ecological balance. It is needless to say that forest is the most important & suitable place or home for the wild animals & birds. If people destroy trees according to their will, the beasts & birds will gradually decrease. And ecological balance will gradually be disturbed & imbalanced. So to speak, the effects of deforestation on human beings are positively terrible. The climate becomes unbearable & brings a great havoc to the people of the country. There is also lack of oxygen in the air. That's why, people suffer from various diseases like heart disease, bronchitis & so on. Deforestation also leads to serious soil erosion. So, the riverbed is filled with sediment & causes frequent floods. Deforestation is really a national problem. People of all classes should come forward to solve this problem. Green revolution is to be made successfully. The illiterate people should be made conscious & alert regarding the bad effects of deforestation. It is the fundamental duty & responsibility of all the inhabitants of the world to keep the environment balanced. We should prevent deforestation. Otherwise, our environment will face an ecological disorder in near future. Without keeping our environment balanced, we cannot expect a secure world for the next generation. THE EFFECTS OF DEFORESTATION Tree is one of the most mentionable gifts of nature. In many ways it is very useful to us. Trees produce oxygen which is the vital ingredient for life. Besides, we need them for many more reasons. Trees make the land fertile. They save the land from erosion. They provide us with wood and other products. They give us shade and they help to prevent droughts and floods. They cause rain. They save our houses from cyclone and tidal bore. They also provide us different types of crops and nutritious fruits which are full of food values. Above all, trees make a balance in the environment. So life cannot be imagined without trees or forest. On the other hand, we know that ‘deforestation’ means removing trees or forest from one place. This is the problem haunting the whole world. According to the ecologists, for liveable environment there should be forest on the 25% land of the total land area. In Bangladesh there is 16% forest of the total land. To meet up the basic needs of food and housing, man is destroying forest without caring for the ecological imbalance. Our country is now at a deficit in necessary timber. One of the main reasons is that people in rural areas indiscriminately cut trees for getting firewood. They use it as fuel. But our people are simply careless for planting new trees in the place of the old one. Green patches of land are no more green. New areas of the world are getting deserts as an immediate effect of deforestation. A very few people care to plant new trees. In absence of trees carbon-di-oxide is increasing worldwide. As a result, there is global warming. The sea level is rising. Any time in future the earth may be engulfed by seas. So, deforestation should be stopped. If there are no trees, there will be little or no rainfall. Then there will be a great change in the whole atmosphere. As a result the whole country may turn into a desert. So, Rabindranath, the great poet rightly said, “Give back the forest, take your town.” Hence we have to realise the bad effect of deforestation and plant more and more trees in the roads and highways, in the houses and there where a land remains unused. DIGITAL BANGLADESH/ VISION 2021 Today the entire world is gradually becoming a Digital Planet. Almost every state is heading towards a knowledge-based society and Bangladesh cannot stay away from the advantages out of it. Though it is very easy to speak about such a dream, i.e. making a country digital, but at the same time it is very difficult to implement it. For implementation, it is basically the government who will take initiatives while the other political parties also need to play important role. “Digital Bangladesh” does not only mean the broad use of computers,perhaps it means the modern philosophy of effective and useful use of technology in terms of implementing the promises in education, health, job placement, poverty reduction etc. Therefore, the government underscores a changing attitude, positive thinking and innovative ideas for the success of “Digital Bangladesh” The use of information and communication technology has been playing a vital role in the 21st century due to globalization and the government is encouraged to adapting with the coming future. The democratic government has declared the “Vision 2021” in the election manifesto which targets establishment of a resourceful and modern country by 2021 through effective use of information and communication technology-a "Digital Bangladesh". The philosophy of “Digital Bangladesh” comprises ensuring people’s democracy and rights, transparency, accountability, establishing justice and ensuring delivery of government services in each door through maximum use of technology-with the ultimate goal to improve the daily lifestyle of general people. Government’s “Digital Bangladesh” includes all classes of people and does not discriminate people in terms of technology. Hence,government have emphasized on the four elements of “Digital Bangladesh Vision” which are human resource development, people involvement, civil services and use of information technology in business. The golden jubilee of the independence of Bangladeshwould be observed in 2021. The country has already fixed its target of achieving 'Digital Bangladesh' by that time. It is a timely expectation for proper positioning the country among other hi-tech countries globally. A country goes digital means it will be an e-state means all its activities of governance, commerce, education, agriculture etc., will be powered by computer and internet. Today information communication technology (ICT) drives the technological and economic advancement of the developed as well as emerging economies. The goal of establishing such digital country would bring success in the ICT sector, which cannot be ignored in this 21st century. Heading towards that target will link every device such as cell phone, internet, computer, e-learning, e-governance etc. Bangladesh as a country with 150 million population has huge potential, despite having many problems. It is very important to create skilled manpower educated in science and technology. Due to poverty and illiteracy, use of ICT is beyond imagination and some of them consider it nothing but mere a fashion. Despite having a lot of interest, most of the population remains out of the access of ICT because of high price. In the era of globalization, ICT is a cross-cutting issue as well as an essential tool for economic development. It can play an important role in creating employment, raising work skills and production. It can contain corruption and attain social development. The life and livelihood of a large number of populations, especially those living in rural areas, cannot be developed without utilizing the ICT scope for them. In this matter government must train the rural people. And at the same time they must have access to information technology. Digital Bangladesh 'Digital Bangladesh' means digitalizing Bangladesh by ensuring an ICT based society where information will be available on the line and where all possible activities of the government and other non-government or semi-government organizations will be performed using digital technology. Being digital Bangladesh will be an e-state. People will enjoy e-banking, e-governance and so on. People will no more have to stand in queue to collect tickets, results, be harassed while having services from various institutions. Telephone, Mobile, Website, Computer and all other tools of information technology will be available in every nook and corner of the country. People will no more have to stand queue to deposit or withdraw money to buy or sell things. They will be able to continue their respective activities without delay. Almost all the institutions both private and government will come under website system. The details of these institutions will be available on website. The Computer Literacy Program is indeed a step towards a Digital Bangladesh. To spread web throughout the country, all the institutions need to have computer, so students, teachers, businessman and various types of service holders should learn operating computer, professional, students, teachers and businessman will have to have strong command over the use of computer and the internet. The internet will be the strongest means of communication. The farmers will use all types of modern motorized tools instead of traditional equipment and their hand-driver tools to cultivate their lands. They will no more lag behind in producing more and more tool because of all scientific methods and ways will be at their disposal. The patients will be treated with the latest medical apparatus and facilities. The sellers or the buyers will no more be mugged or robbed because their transaction will be run through e-banking or online banking system. People will no longer waste hopes of paper for calculation or registration. Rather all the information and calculation will be saved in computer. To speak the truth, there will hardly be any difference between village and towns because almost all the corners of the lord will enjoy the equal facilities of modern technology. We can claim that Bangladesh has already been a digital state to a little extent. Some Steps have already taken for Building Digital Bangladesh. Such as; national ID card and voter list, the automation process of the Chittagong Customs House, machine readable passport, online tax payment system, infrastructural development of internet. The Internet has reached many areas of town. People are now enjoying online banking facilities. ATM booths are after seen beside roads in cities. Hundreds of cyber cafes are mushrooming in cities. Many educational institutions and business centers are using multimedia for presentation. Majority of the total population now use Mobile-phones to communicate. Moreover use of e-mails is also to the rise. Hope our Government will be successful in their mission if their efforts are serious and sincere to gift us a fully Digital Bangladesh. We believe through being fully digital our beloved country can be an advanced, educated and secured state. The government should go ahead in planned way in this correction. We the general people are looking forward with keen interest to seeing a digital Bangladesh. Digital Bangladesh: To cherish such a dream is easy, but it is too much difficult to materialize this dream. Land phone, mobile, computer, laptop, e-magazine and diary, e-book reader and many more tools of information technology will be available in every nook and corner of the country. People will no more have to stand in queue to collect tickets, results etc or to deposit and withdraw money or to buy and sell things. Broadly speaking, a digital society ensures an ICT driven knowledge-based society where information will be readily available online and where all possible tasks of the government, semi-government and also private spheres will be processed using the modern technology. So, “Digital Bangladesh” must guarantee efficient and effective use of modem ICT in all spheres of the society with a view to establishing good governance. Why Digital Bangladesh: Due to globalization, Bangladesh has already been connected with the outside world. Yet In the field of ICT, our only grand success lies in Mobile telecommunication which has brought an abrupt change in telecommunication scenario of the country. However, in the other spheres of ICT, our achievement is very insignificant and we are still far away from transforming ourselves into a knowledge-based society. Building strong ICT infrastructure is the pre-requisite for making Bangladesh a digital one. For this, we need to focus on the following relevant issues: (a) Power deficit: Latest statistics reveal that Bangladesh faces a power deficit of up to 2000 MW against a demand of 5000 MW daily. It may be noted that for proper ICT development an uninterrupted power supply is a must. (b) Network infrastructure: Outside Dhaka, at present a few computer network infrastructures have been developed so far. Apart from some educational institutes outside Dhaka, observation finds that most of the LAN setups are Dhaka centric. This observation reveals the reality of the digital gap even within the country. (c) Use of internet: For the ICT development internet users of the country must be increased. In this case our position is the worst one among the South Asian countries. Latest statistics (2007) revealed that internet penetration in our country is only 0.3 whereas in Pakistan and India it is 7.3% and 5.3% respectively. (d) Use of open source software: Many countries (e.g. France and Malaysia) have started to use open source software in ICT development projects for cost effectiveness. Unfortunately in our ICT development domain, the culture of using open source has not yet been introduced. (e) English-literacy rate: From different sources, it has been learnt that, English literacy rate in Bangladesh is less than one percent. In the arena of ICT English has become lingua-Franca. Unfortunately, in this case our position is the worst in the sub-continent. For making a digital Bangladesh by 2021, the government must address the above issues effectively and efficiently in transparent manners. Moreover, the journey towards a digital country needs the incorporation of the technologically solvent innovative young generation. If the leaders of our country objectively guide this generation, they can change the nation radically. (f) Better agricultural production: The farmers will use all types of modern motorized tools instead of traditional equipments and their hand-driven tools to cultivate their lands. They will have to get ample online help about producing more and more crops. (g) Modern treatment: Patients will have to get telemedicine and telesurgery facilities with the use of audio and video conferencing based net. Besides, 24-hour online help will radically change the traditional medical services. (h) E-learning and e-commerce: All the educational and commercial institutions will come under a good network system and the details of these institutions and their activities will be available on websites. E-paper, digitised pen, e-book, pen drive and screen-touch tools will replace the traditional tools for many different reasons. Conclusion: Time has come for Bangladesh to develop her information technology and to turn her “Digital Bangladesh”. We need to bear in mind that to be away from enriched information technology means to live like a frog living in a well. We should look at the advanced countries of the world so that we can get modern ways and strategies from them to bring about a revolution for our ICT based society. Like Mahathir Muhammad’s Malaysia, we have to have our all-out efforts to materialise our desired Vision-2021 for our betterment and own existence. Digital Bangladesh Introduction: “Digital Bangladesh” means an ICT based modern country where there will be adequate power supply, well-networked infrastructure, use of internet, use of open-source software, e-banking, e-commerce and e-governance. Of late the phrase “Digital Bangladesh” has been much talked about especially during the election campaign of the political parties targeting the ninth parliamentary election. Origin of Digital Vision: On the eve of the election, Bangladesh Awami League, one of the major political parties, first declared vision 2021with the aim to turn Bangladesh into a digital country by the next decade. More than a month ago, the Bangladesh Computer Council also organized a computer fair with the theme “Digital Bangladesh”. It refers to an e-state where all its activities of governance, commerce, education, agriculture etc will be powered by computer and internet. Different analyses of the electoral results have revealed that the young generation who consist of more than one third of the voters had indeed brought this overwhelming victory for AL. With many other reasons, implicitly it can be inferred that voters of this generation while exercising their franchise considered party manifestos seriously. Presumably the visionary approach of AL’s manifesto, entitled ‘a charter for change’ might have allured the young voters much, especially it’s ‘Vision 2021′which envisions ‘Digital Bangladesh’. Meaning of Digital Bangladesh: To cherish such a dream is easy, but it is too much difficult to materialize this dream. Land phone, mobile, computer, laptop, e-magazine and diary, e-book reader and many more tools of information technology will be available in every nook and corner of the country. People will no more have to stand in queue to collect tickets, results etc or to deposit and withdraw money or to buy and sell things.

How to materialise the vision: The government of the Bangladesh Awami League is very firm to ensure 100% net students enrolment at primary level within 2021. Supply of pure drinking water for the entire population will be ensured within 2011. Bangladesh will gain self-sufficiency in food within 2012. Each and every house of Bangladesh will be brought under hygienic sanitation in 2013. Moreover, within this same year Bangladesh will generate 7000 megawatt of electricity which will be further increased to 8000 megawatt in 2015. And in 2021, 20000 megawatt of electricity will be generated. In 2013, degree level education will be made tuition-free especially for women. Unemployment rate will be reduced to l5% from 40% at present. Labour in agriculture will come down to 30% from 48% at present. Labour in industry will be increased to 25% from 16% at present; in service 45% from 36% at present. Poverty rate will be reduced to 15% from 45% at present. Bangladesh will be known as a country of educated people with skills in information technology. 85% of the population will have standard nutritional food. The poorer section of the people will have at least 2122 calories of food. All types of contagious diseases will be eliminated; longevity of life expectancy will increase up to 70 years. Infant mortality will come down to 15 from 54 per thousand at present. Maternal death rate will come down to 1.5% from 3.8%. Use of birth control methods will be increased to 80%. Conclusion: Time has come for Bangladesh to develop her information technology and to turn her “Digital Bangladesh”.

Digital Bangladesh : Vision-2021 Digital Bangladesh means it will be an e-state; all of its activities like governance, commerce, education, agriculture etc. will be powered by computer and internet. Today the entire world is gradually becoming a digital planet. Almost every state is heading towards a knowledge-based society and Bangladesh cannot stay away from the advantages out of it. Both the ruling and opposition parties in Bangladesh, Awami League (AL) and Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) emphasized ICT development as a core issue. With the landslide victory of AL in the recent general election of December 29, 2008, the making of an ICT-driven society in Bangladesh is now a real possibility. The election manifesto of AL pledged with ICT commitment cuts across the whole range of social, economic and governance development issues. The AL assured to build a 'Digital Bangladesh' where people will get a developed life, corruption and misrule-free society, and face the challenges of the 21st Century. The main opposition party, BNP also mentioned a number of times that they started the programme in their tenure and would complete it earlier than 2021. Therefore, the destination for the generation is correctly pointed out towards a 'Digital Bangladesh' and there is no disagreement on the issue among the parties. A very first step for 'Digital Bangladesh' would be to spread the ICT education throughout the country. Every primary and secondary student should have access to the computer and computer-based education. Midlevel education and short-term training should be readily available throughout the country and higher level education on computer science should be qualitative. Internet facilities should be made available to the remotest corner of the country at a cheaper rate. VISION 2021 : Bangladesh Awami League placed before the nation the following set of election promises, work schedule and declaration in the light of its vision 2021. 2010 100 percent net student enrolment at primary level. 2011 Supply of pure drinking water for the entire population. 2012 : Self-sufficiency in food. 2013 : Each house brought under hygienic sanitation. 2013: Attain 8 percent annual growth rate, this will be increased to 10, percent in 2017 and sustained. 2013: Bangladesh generates 7000 Megawatt of electricity which will be further increased to 8000 Megawatt in 2015. Steps will be taken to increase power generation capacity assuming that the demand for power will reach the level of 20000 Megawatt in 2021. 2013 : Free tuition up to degree level. 2014 : Bangladesh attains full literacy. 2015 : Living accommodation for the entire population. 2021 : Contribution of agriculture, industry and service sector to GDP will stand at 15, 40 and 45 percent respectively in place of 22, 28 and 50 percent as at present. 2021 : Unemployment reduced to 15 percent from the present rate of 40 percent. 2021 : Labour in agriculture comes down to 30% from 48% at present. 2021 : Labour in industry is 25% from 16% and in service 45% from 36% at present. 2021 : Poverty rate comes down to 15% from 45% at present. 2021: Bangladesh known as a country of educated people with skills in information technology. 2021 :85% of the populaton have standard nutritional food. 2021 : Poor people ensured a minimum of 2122 kilo calories of food. 2021 : All kinds of contagious diseases eliminated. 2021 : Longevity increases to 70 years. 2021 : Infant mortality comes down to 15 from 54 per thousand at present. 2021 : Maternal death rate reduced to 1.5% from 3.8%. 2021 : Use of birth control methods increased to 80%. Power and Energy : In the next three years or by 2011 power production will be increased to 5000 Megawatt and by 2013 it will be further increased to 7000 Megawatt.

Agriculture : Subsidy for agricultural inputs will be enhanced and availability of inputs will be made easier. The amount of agricultural loan will be increased. Bangladesh as a country with 150 million people has huge potential, despite having many problems. It is very important to create skilled manpower educated in science and technology. Currently, the people of Bangladesh remain far away from using ICT, when the whole world is getting developed with the blessing of ICT. The people of the country face this discrimination only because of economic insolvency. Due to poverty and illiteracy, use of ICT is beyond imagination, and some of them consider it nothing but mere a fashion. Despite having a lot of interest, most of the people remain out of +he access of ICT because of high price. In the era of globalization, ICT is a crosscutting issue as well as an essential tool for economic development. It can play an important role in creating employment, raising work skill and production. The adoption of ICT can bring corruption free, citizen-centric and forward-looking governance in the country. As in many other fields, in ICTs also Bangladesh was an early adopter (as early as 1963) but then it fell behind most countries in the region as evidenced by various indices of ICT readiness such as PC penetration rate, internet penetration rate and others. In fact in the latest network readiness index published by the World Economic Forum, Bangladesh ranked behind India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. So the clarion call of the AL led grand alliance for building a 'Digital Bangladesh. It is the expectation of the mass people that government will take all possible steps to create a SMART (simple, measurable, accountable, responsive and transparent) 'Digital Bangladesh' and establish a knowledge-based society within 50 years of her independence in 2021. Digital Bangladesh 'Digital Bangladesh' means digitalizing Bangladesh by ensuring an ICT based society where information will be available on the line and where all possible activities of the government and other non-government or semi-government organizations will be performed using digital technology. Being digital Bangladesh will be an e-state. People will enjoy e-banking, e-governance and so on. People will no more have to stand in queue to collect tickets, results, be harassed while having services from various institutions. Telephone, Mobile, Website, Computer and all other tools of information technology will be available in every nook and corner of the country. People will no more have to stand queue to deposit or withdraw money to buy or sell things. They will be able to continue their respective activities without delay. Almost all the institutions both private and government will come under website system. The details of these institutions will be available on website. The Computer Literacy Program is indeed a step towards a Digital Bangladesh. To spread web throughout the country, all the institutions need to have computer, so students, teachers, businessman and various types of service holders should learn operating computer, professional, students, teachers and businessman will have to have strong command over the use of computer and the internet. The internet will be the strongest means of communication. The farmers will use all types of modern motorized tools instead of traditional equipment and their hand-driver tools to cultivate their lands. They will no more lag behind in producing more and more tool because of all scientific methods and ways will be at their disposal. The patients will be treated with the latest medical apparatus and facilities. The sellers or the buyers will no more be mugged or robbed because their transaction will be run through e-banking or online banking system. People will no longer waste hopes of paper for calculation or registration. Rather all the information and calculation will be saved in computer. To speak the truth, there will hardly be any difference between village and towns because almost all the corners of the lord will enjoy the equal facilities of modern technology. We can claim that Bangladesh has already been a digital state to a little extent. Some Steps have already taken for Building Digital Bangladesh. Such as; national ID card and voter list, the automation process of the Chittagong Customs House, machine readable passport, online tax payment system, infrastructural development of internet. The Internet has reached many areas of town. People are now enjoying online banking facilities. ATM booths are after seen beside roads in cities. Hundreds of cyber cafes are mushrooming in cities. Many educational institutions and business centers are using multimedia for presentation. Majority of the total population now use Mobile-phones to communicate. Moreover use of e-mails is also to the rise. Hope our Government will be successful in their mission if their efforts are serious and sincere to gift us a fully Digital Bangladesh. We believe through being fully digital our beloved country can be an advanced, educated and secured state. The government should go ahead in planned way in this correction. We the general people are looking forward with keen interest to seeing a digital Bangladesh.
DIGITAL BANGLADESH
The forces of globalization and technology are continuously reshaping our socio-economic structure. The impact of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) are giving rise to a new type of society which is recognized as “Knowledge Based Society”. Over the decades technology has had a pivotal role in defining today's digitized global structure. The developed countries have already adopted this concept and made rapid progress in the global arena. In this context, Bangladesh has got into the threshold to match with the global concept of becoming digitized, by year 2021 through application of mass ICT and emerge as "Digital Bangladesh". This concept is not only ICT centric development rather it is the integration of ICT and non-ICT sectors of the country. The vision "Digital Bangladesh" encompasses the whole arena of a knowledge based digital socio-economic structure. The road to digitization focuses highest priority to science, technology, governance, health and education. Moreover, it is important to start digitized service delivery organs like Police, City corporation, Land Department, Tax Department, PDB, Water supply, Gas and other authorities also including sectors like Banking, Insurance, Customs, Tax Collection. Some Steps have already taken for Building Digital Bangladesh. Such as; national ID card and voter list, the automation process of the Chittagong Customs House, machine readable passport, online tax payment system, infrastructural development of internet. At present Bangladesh is in the process of preparing the platform to launch a nationwide digitization program. A significant improvement has been observed in different sectors like development of IT infrastructure, tele-based services. But each and every sector of the country specially agriculture, education, commerce, health etc have to be given due importance for the success of this campaign. Therefore government should formulate a comprehensive roadmap integrating long and short term planning.

'Digital Bangladesh' means digitalizing Bangladesh by ensuring an ICT based society where information will be available on the line and where all possible activities of the government and other non-government or semi-government organizations will be performed using digital technology. Bangladesh is an independent country. She achieved her freedom more than 39 years ago. But still she is burdened with many problems like poverty, over population, unemployment, corruption, food deficit, natural calamities, power crisis etc. Considering all these, the present government has aimed at making a Digital Bangladesh to overcome these problems. The motto of Digital Bangladesh is to establish technology based digital governance, e-commerce, e-agriculture, e-production, e-education, etc. emphasizing the overall development of the country and the nation. The benefits of Digital Bangladesh are many. If we can establish a Digital Bangladesh, corruption will drastically reduce. Besides, it will save people's time and money and will make people more enterprising and thus will reduce unemployment problem. It will connect people with the whole world economically, politically, socially, academically and even culturally. It will open doors for the people to improve their conditions. It will also improve banking and financial activities. Money transfer and transaction of business could be made within seconds by clicking the mouse of a computer. Agriculture, health, education, commerce all these sectors will be highly benefited by making Bangladesh a Digital one.
Dignity of Labour
There are two kinds of labour-manual and intellectual. Each of them has dignity of its own and none is inferior to the other. The work of a clerk, a teacher, a professor, a lawyer, a doctor does require much mental labour. On the contrary, the work of a labourer, a miner, an artisan requires physical labour. When we that the work of the cultivators, miners, artisans etc. is as ected as the work of the clerk, the teacher, the lawyer and the tor, we mean there is dignity of labour.
There is a great importance of manual labour in human life. We grow crops, build houses and factories, construct roads and streets by manual labour. Manual labour is also necessary in the fields, es, mills and ships. If the sweepers, the porters, the carpenters, the blacksmith and the peasants did not perform their duties, whole of mankind could not have enjoyed the present result of civilization. It gives us good physical exercise and so keeps our y fit and strong. It helps the continuation of our existence in this rid. We cannot live without food, drink, clothes and houses. But they are gifts of manual labour. So manual labour is more essential than the intellectual.
In our country, people usually do not respect manual labour. They think that manual labour lowers down their position in the society. So they hate manual labour. A man with a little bit of education does not even wash his own clothes because of his vanity.
Hut this picture is quite different in the developed countries of the world. For instance, Tolstoy came of a very rich family. He himself did manual work like other peasant. Great men of the world believe that manual labour can never lower down the prestige of a man.
At present the outlook of our countrymen has not yet completely changed. But we should understand that manual labour makes a man great and dignified. An ordinary labourer without education is better than an educated idle man. So, we should feel that there is dignity of labour in every sphere of life.
DIGNITY OF LABOUR
There is a good saying, "Life is short, but art is long." We are surrounded by work and we have to cross a long path full of our duties and work. The sun, the moon, the stars and the constellation are moving on and on. Similarly every living being from small insect to the large elephant is working for the existence and growth. We take lessons from nature, nature is not still. Man is moving with passage of time to the endless journey.
We all know that industry is the mother of good luck. God has given us hands to work with. The great souls of the world used to do their work with their hands. We have our needs, hunger and dreams for prospect. We have to earn money to meet the cost of our daily necessaries. Labour occupies our work ranging from the space to the deep sea. Without labour, we would not have food, clothes and shelter. But a man should undergo labour honestly and do his work faithfully. Samuel Smiles says, "It is not a disgrace to be a shoemaker. But it is certainly a great disgrace to make bad shoes." So if we exert labour, we may get confidence in return.
In our national life importance of labour is undeniable. An idle nation can never prosper. The world is colourful and labour is essential to ensure success in every sphere of life. From top to bottom, lower class to higher class, all people should do labour for the overall development -of the nation. The greatest friends of men are his ten fingers. He is embellished with honour and fame by virtue of his work.
If we realise the importance of labour in our human life, we will have a readier appreciation of the dignity of labour. Without labour nothing is brought to life. It is truly written in an ancient Jewish book, "Every carpenter and work master that laboureth night and day; the smith also by the anvil; the potter sitting at his work; all these trust to his hand, and everyone is wise in his work. Without these a city cannot be inhabited."
In fine, it is said that honest work of all kinds is dignified and worthy of respect. Even an employee of humble profession ought to be respected instead of being regarded with contempt. The only things we should be ashamed of are idleness and trying to live by without labour. There is a saying that, "Work is worship and to work is to pray." We should always remember that an honest workman stands high in honour :
"His brow is wet with honest sweat, He earns whatever he can;
And looks the whole world in the face,
For he owes not any man."
DISCIPLINE
The word ‘discipline’ is derived from the Latin word ‘discere’ and its meaning is to learn. From the same word comes ‘disciple’- one who learns from a teacher. Discipline is therefore, the way one learns to live, grow and mature as a decent human being. It is a moral quality. It implies strict obedience to any system of rules for orderly conduct.
Discipline is the law of Nature. Nature shows the glaring example of discipline. All heavenly bodies like the sun, the earth, the moon etc. more in their fixed orbit in a disciplined manner. Even days and nights are caused and the seasons are being changed without any beak for a minute. If these things did not move in a disciplined way, there would have been chaos and collision in Nature.
Discipline is neither a value nor a goal. It is a working device by which the goal is achieved. The importance of discipline in every walk of life is undeniable. We can’t prosper in life without following it. Discipline is necessary in the first place for one’s moral life in order that it might not be swayed by passions, prejudices, temptations and other vices. The happiness of a family totally depends on the disciplined conduct of its members. A nation cannot flourish if the people don’t understand the value of discipline. We can’t learn our lesson well if there is no discipline in the schools. If the players in the playground don’t obey the rules of the game and the order of the captain, they are sure to lose the game. In fact discipline is the very basis of progress in every sphere, public or private.
In the family, peace and happiness reign when the youngers obey their elders and everybody observes the established rules. If the members submit to no authority and do what they like, the family becomes a den of discord and unhappiness.
Discipline in schools and colleges requires the regular preparation of lessons and learning correct behaviour in society etc. Without it, academic activities cannot run smoothly. It is also necessary for making promising students. We can develop our character and make progress in studies if we are disciplined. So, students should keep themselves away form creating disturbance in the educational institutions and obey and advice and instructions of their teachers whole-heartedly.
In the play-ground too, the pleasure that a game gives to players as well as to spectators depends a great deal upon the observance of discipline by them. By maintaining discipline we can develop the spirit of group-loyalty, fellow-feeling, tolerance and mutual understanding. Even the best player or athlete can let down his team by being indisciplined or suddenly emotional.
The importance of discipline among soldiers is known to all. Discipline is strictly followed in army. Every soldier has to carry out the orders of his commander without any argument. Only a disciplined army can bring victory in war. The affairs of a civil government as well cannot go on smoothly without discipline.
Discipline is found in human body. The various organs of the body are co-operative with one another and disciplined for the growth and development of the whole body.
Even the lower animals are disciplined. The life of the bees in a hive is much disciplined. All the bees obey the queen bees. The ant is also disciplined. They lead their life in a disciplined way.
In any organisation social, political, religious, economic and educational discipline is essential. It is essential for the growth and development of the concern. No industry can work smoothly without discipline among the workers. It must be maintained at home as well as at schools, colleges, factories, offices. Discipline in necessary for a state, for a whole nation for its prosperity and development.
Some take license for freedom. But they are quite different. Freedom means the right to do anything socially acceptable without causing any harm or inconvenience to others. Discipline means the decent way of exercising the right. Real freedom cannot be enjoyed in the absence of discipline. For example, a citizen has the right to vote for a deserving candidate in the election but if there is no discipline or law and order in the polling centre, he will fail to exercise his right or freedom to vote. So, we can say that there cannot be freedom or liberty without law or discipline. In fact, the freer a nation is, the greater is it s impact for rules and authority.
It is clear that discipline is the fundamental condition of success. It may be called the backbone of character. It is the key to prosperity of a man or a nation. Life, which is not consistent with discipline, is sure to ruin. As discipline is of the utmost importance for the stability of society we should try our best to practise it throughout our life.

Discipline
Discipline means going by law and system. In order to do anything successfully, discipline is a must. Discipline is the precondition to success in life. The more a society is disciplined, the more developed they are in different fields of life. So we can easily say that the most disciplined nation is the most developed nation of his world. We should first realise the value of discipline and make our young generation feel its essentiality in life. But discipline should be practiced right from early in life. Habit of discipline cannot be formulated in a day.
Discipline should start from early in the morning. We should practice getting up early in the morning. Getting up from bed early we should wash our teeth, say our prayer and take breakfast. We have also to take some physical exercise for keeping fine. Without discipline, we cannot have a good start in the day’s work. If one student doesn’t prepare his lessons well and attend his school in time he will cut a sorry figure in the exam. Again if there is no discipline in the family, the family will not run well. The office will be a scene of chaos. Likewise, a society will not function without the practice of discipline. So each and every, society has got to follow the laws, rules and regulations.
Lack of discipline results in the complete chaos and confusion. Even the animals in the forest go by some natural laws for their existence. Lack of discipline reminds us of the situation where he animals fight with each other till death. Without discipline the society will cease to exist. Lack of discipline hinders our onward movement and makes us stagnant. Without discipline, a student cannot complete his education successfully. Discipline will save unnecessary wastage of money, man power and time. Being a poor country, we cannot afford the wastage of time, money and other resources.
Discipline is the root of civilization. Every civilization has come through a long way of discipline. Strict adherence to discipline takes one to the summit of success. Again a society falls down into the abyss of darkness by indulging in indiscipline. Indiscipline is, in other word, lawlessness. Society and progress are synonymous and go together.
Discipline
We act according to certain rules and principles at all educational institutions, at home, in public life and everywhere. Discipline is the habit of action according to some rules an regulations. To abide by these rules and regulations perfectly everywhere may be called discipline. The word 'discipline' is derived from the Latin word 'DISCIPULUS' which means disciple. It has also another Latin origin 'DISCERE'which means to learn.
A society without discipline is like a ship without a rudder. The whole universe is governed by strict laws. The sun, the moon, the earth and the planets move according to certain laws. Had there been no discipline in nature, the world would have been destroyed.
Discipline is of great importance in every sphere of life. We can not prosper in this world without it. The peace or happiness of a family depends on the disciplined conduct of its members. In childhood, we do not know what is good for us. If we do as we like, there will be disorder and chaos in the society. Consequently, we shall be ruined, A nation can not rise if the people do not understand the value of discipline. If there is no discipline in the schools, colleges, universities, we can not learn our lessons well. Discipline is an essential condition for the progress of national life as well as human civilization.
We must first learn the lesson of discipline at home. The younger one should follow the elders. The educational institutions teach discipline. The students must listen to the teachers in the classroom. In the battle field, every soldier must obey the commander. It can also be learnt in the play ground. All the players must obey the captain.
Discipline implies freedom but not licence. In the society, one can not do whatever one likes. If he does so, freedom becomes licence. Obedience to rules does not make a person slave, it makes it possible for him to enjoy freedom.
Thus, we find that discipline is necessary in every walk of life. Indeed, it is the backbone of character. Those who try to bring us under discipline are our friends. Those who allow us to do what we like are our enemies. So, we should follow (cultivate) the rules of discipline from the very beginning of our life.
Discipline or The Value of Discipline
Introduction : Man is the best creation (creature) of Allah/God. Only he possesses (has) wisdom and knowledge. He is a social being. So he has to live with others in society and he has to build up relation with different communities, societies or nations, Besides, he has to adjust his activities with the society or different situations for different' purposes. So roan has to abide by different rules or laws in any field of life. The rules which regulate human
Conduct and activities are known as discipline. So, discipline means obedience to the rules formed to regulate human conduct/manners.
Its necessity-: Discipline is the key to success of life. No success or prosperity in any field is possible without discipline. So the pre-condition of a man's success or development is discipline. A man c.ai-ft do whatever he wishes. He has, to abide by the certain rules of a certain situation. Discipline is a must in all walks of life. If a man does what he wishes, there will be chaos, clashes and disorder in the society.Therefore, the value and the necessity of discipline is very great in every walk of life. - Discipline in the family : There is a good discipline in every family. All the members of the house must obey the head of the family. A disciplined family is a happy and successful one. There is no chaos or clashes or disturbance or any problem in a disciplined family. Again,, a family without discipline is bound to ruin today or tomorrow.
Discipline in nature , Discipline is a divine process. We can see or observe discipline in every object of the nature. The earth, the moon and the stars move around the sun according to certain rules. The night appears (comes) after the day. Again, the reason comes one after another according to certain rules. All the objects of the nature maintain (abide by) discipline. So the nature teaches us the value of discipline.
Discipline in lower animals : Even the lower animals are disciplined. The ant and the bee are the wonderful example of discipline. The life of the bee is well-disciplined. All the bees obey the queen bee. Therefore, some lower animals also can realise the value of discipline.
Discipline in human body : Discipline is also found in human body. All the organs o., the body co-operate with one another for the grown and the development of the -whole body'.
Discipline in academy : An educational institution is the best centre for teaching discipline. The student learn discipline there. The student have to carry out :he institution and obey their teachers. They can't do whatever they like r colleges.
Discipline in the play-ground : Discipline is strictly maintained in the play-ground. A player has to abide by the rules of Aarnes and sports. He has to obey his captain and abide by the decision of the referee in the playground. Without discipline no team can win the game. Again, a tearn without discipline will sure lose the game.
Discipline in the army : Discipline is also strictly maintained in the army. A soldier life is well-disciplined in any country. Discipline is a part and parcel in the army. Any danger or even death can't deter a soldier from carrying out the orders of his commanders in any situations. An army without discipline surely meet a defeat in the battlefield.
Conclusion : The pre-condition of a peaceful, decent, happy and prosperous society is discipline. A life without discipline means full of disorder, chaos and anarchy. A disciplined life means a prosperous, peaceful, happy. life. Indiscipline brings disorder, chaos and ruin in life. Therefore, we always maintain discipline anywhere in order to lead a decent and long life.
THE IMPORTANCE OF DISCIPLINE IN HUMAN LIFE
Discipline may be defined as strict obedience to certain rules and regulations. Discipline in life is something like a capital without which no progress and prosperity can be achieved.
Discipline is prevalent in Nature. The heavenly bodies move in order; the night follows day and vice versa. If there was no discipline, there would have been chaos in Nature.
Discipline is taught in schools and colleges. The students have to follow certain rules of conduct while reading or playing. Much of a man's success depends on his disciplined activities. A well-disciplined life is a successful life. Discipline should be maintained at all costs in the institutions. The students must be disciplined.
Strict discipline is imposed in the Armed Forces. Discipline is the essential condition of army life and without this the whole nation may be in danger. An ill-disciplined regiment may bring defeat while a disciplined group is sure to achieve victory. They are used to obeying the orders of their officers even at the cost of life.
Discipline is valued in games and sports and the win or defeat of a team depends on how the players are trained. The orders of the skipper must be obeyed. That is the lesson of true sportsmanship.
The importance of discipline cannot be overemphasized. In all organizations—religious, political, economic, social or educational—rules and regulations must be observed. Life without discipline is a ship without a rudder. It is the precondition for the growth of society and for the spread of civilization. Thus it is needless to underline how much important discipline is in public life. The people in politics who are at the helm of affairs are the guardians of the nation. The public leaders are the anchor-sheet of hopes and aspirations. If they do not abide by discipline, there will be chaos and confusion in all aspects of life and consequently, the state may come to a total collapse. So the imposition of strict discipline is a must for the uplift either for an individual or for a nation.
DRUG ADDICTION
Drug is a kind of intoxicating element that affects the nervous system of our body seriously. Drug addiction means a strong desire for a drug which the addict cannot resist. Narcotics like opium, morphine, heroine, marijuana, cocaine etc. are used by the addicted. These drugs are used for their intoxicating, tranquilising, stimulating effects. If a person gets addicted to any of these once, he cannot go without them.
Drug addiction is a curse of modern civilization. Drugs lead youngsters to go astray and destroy many valuable and beautiful lives. There are some reasons for drug addiction such as, frustration, association, availability of intoxicant, unemployment, failure in love, degradation of religious values, lack of family ties, etc. When a young person falls into a completely hopeless situation, drugs allure him. Sometimes young boys and girls come in contact with drugs out of curiosity. Drug addiction creates social problems. Narcotics are very expensive. So the addicted person often go for stealing, hijacking and all sorts of misdeeds to procure money. He can, in no circumstances, refrain from taking drugs. He tries to have it at any cost. It helps him to see strange things that have no existence at all to him. The drug-addict also does something that ruins the peace of the family. He even steals ornaments, utensils, clothes and what not to procure money for buying drugs. So all other members of the family remain in tension for his misdeeds. The fate of the addict is serious. He dies a painful death losing character. He becomes a burden not only for the family but also for the society and also for the nation.
The remedy for drug-addiction is not very easy. Drug addiction is not only a national but also a global problem. To save our young generation from drug-addiction the government and educated people should come forward with necessary remedies. Strong measures should be taken to stop the production and trafficking of drugs.
Drug-business is punishable and the highest punishment is death sentence in Bangladesh. This law should be enforced immediately.
DRUG ADDICTION
Our world is on the edge of the 21st century. In this modern era there are few problems in the world which are thought to be the problem of the whole civilization. Among the very few drug addiction is the most important one. I strongly agree with the statement that drug addiction is not only a national but also a global problem.
If we look at the present situation of the world, we can see that drug addiction is everywhere. It is in our country as well as in the western world, in Africa, in South America and of course all over Asia. There are few zones of the world where drug addiction is very alarming. The zones are golden triangle, Columbia and its associated countries, America and Mexico. People all over the world take drugs in various forms. Drugs are also available in a lot of forms like—heroin, marijuana, cocaine, ganja, vang etc. In the western world there are groups who control the activities of the drug suppliers and producers. This group is known as Mafia circle or group: These groups are also related with other crimes.
In our country drug addiction problem is now increasing day by day. As our country is nearer to the so-called golden triangle, the drug suppliers use our country as a corridor as well as a place of selling drugs. Young generation of the country is easily addicted to drug in our country due to the following reasons
(a) Availability of drug.
(b) Poor activities of the law enforcement sectors.
(c) Political support to the drug Mafia.
Our government should be more strict in this matter and take necessary steps to prevent the underworld criminals to save the future generation of the country.

Drugs have terrible effects on human body. They may affect the brain and all internal functions of the body. Sudden withdrawal of drug is more dangerous. The addicts feel intensepain in the body. They sweat heavily and vomit. The treatment of drug-addiction is expensive and difficult.
Drug addiction is a curse of modern civilization. Drugs lead youngsters to $o astray and destroy many valuable and beautiful lives.

Drug addiction is an acute problem in Bangladesh. It is a bane that causes fatal diseases. So more people, Govt. and non-Govt. agencies, conscious youth organisations should come forward to fight against it and save our young generation from its devastating effects.

DUTY TO PARENTS
Duty to parents is a sacred duty. Duty to parents means to act according to the advice and order of parents. Indeed parents are second to none in this world except God. They are the only source of our lives on earth. We have seen the light of the day through our parents.
Parents are our best friends and well-wishers on earth. When we were born first, we were quite helpless. We could not have lived if our parents had not taken care of us during our infancy. They tenderly brought us up and looked after us all the time. They gave us food, clothing, shelter and education at the cost of great sacrifice. When we were ill, they nursed us without caring for their own joy and happiness. If necessary, they gladly sacrificed their precious lives for us. For instance Babur, the great Mughal Emperor sacrificed his invaluable life for his son Humayun. So to speak, there is none to love us more like them.
We have many duties to do for parents. As parents sacrifice everything for our happiness, it is our bounden duty to serve them and look after them in all possible ways. Particularly we should look after them when they become old, helpless as we were in our childhood. We should supply their needs properly. When they become weak, sick and infirm in old age, we should look after and nurse them with tenderness and care. We should fulfill all their wishes. As for example, Iswar Chandra Vidyasagar swam across the great Damodar river to see his mother.
We should not do anything that may hurt their feelings. A son who is not obedient to his parents can never prosper in life. Disobedience, disregard and negligence are serious crimes and punishments are sure to follow in the latter chapter of life. On the contrary, obedience to parents brings happiness, pleasure and satisfaction in life. The love and affection of the parents is blessing to the children. So it is our only duty to look after them in their old age.
A person who is not kind to his parents is an ungrateful creature. In short, every son and daughter should serve parents by obeying their orders, their advice and by looking after them with due care and heartfelt love. In fact, duty to parents is endless. So, all of us should be dutiful and obedient to our parents during their lifetime and even pray for their salvation when they are no more.
