Save Water
Water is a precious and essential resource for all life on Earth, including humans, animals, and other living organisms. We obtain water from various sources such as rivers, ponds, lakes, underground reserves, and rainwater. It is vital for daily activities like drinking, bathing, and cleaning. Farmers rely on water for irrigation, and the energy sector depends on it for processes such as fossil fuel extraction. However, water pollution poses a significant threat to this vital resource. Industrial waste and toxic chemicals released into rivers and other water bodies contaminate water sources. Additionally, pesticides and fertilizers from agricultural fields often flow into nearby water bodies, exacerbating pollution. Human activities like littering and dumping solid materials such as plastics and heavy metals further degrade water quality. The disposal of untreated sewage into water bodies is another major contributor to pollution. Disposing of sewage in water is also a major reason. No matter how big and small every effort counts.

Kargil War
The Kargil War was a very difficult time our country went through. Furthermore, it was a crisis situation that ensured nationalism, patriotism, and unity among the citizens of India.
Reason:
Kashmir is a beautiful place that resides in an extremely mountainous area containing some of the highest peaks in the world. Unfortunately, this amazing land has remained a constant battleground between the two countries, India and Pakistan. As a part of the Shimla Agreement in 1972, there was an agreement that neither India nor Pakistan could contest the border by using military means.

Unity
Unity is a bond that brings people together to achieve common goals. When individuals stand united, they can overcome challenges. Unity doesn't mean erasing diversity; instead, it means standing together. It reminds us that strength lies in togetherness. If we are united, we can easily overcome or face any challenge. Unity is the ability to stay together and work with others to accomplish a common goal.
