Sir,Historical monuments represent our tradition, history, art and design. They are the symbol of ourarchitectural skills. Millions of tourists from all over the world come to see it. We all should feel very proud of these monuments which are scattered over the length and breadth of our country.But the pitiable conditions of these monuments makes us wonder as to what its future would be.People engra ve their names or other words on its outside and inside walls. Nobody stops them. Inmany monuments the stones and bricks have come out. They have not been repaired and even if they are repaired they are clearly visible as it is the work of ordinary masons and not by experts.These monuments are isolated and secluded apart from being grossly neglected. Their is noweather protection.Committees of experts should be formed to study the present condition of each monument andimmediate steps should be taken to protect them. Proper care enhances their life.I hope concerned authorities would pay proper attention in saving from being ruins.Thanking you Yours Faithfully Alok Kapoor

Physical fitness means the conditions of being physically healthy especially with exercise andproper nutrition. It is the state of general well-being marked by physical health and mentalstability. Now-a-days most of the people believe that having a physically fit body is the mostimportant thing that a person can possess. The easy access to gyms and fitness centres help tokeep their body physically fit. This has resulted in people leading longer and healtheier lives.Physical fitness is important for everyone to stay active throughout their lives. It provides us withmore energy, strength and stamina, keeping the excess body fat off, keeping our bones flexibleand strong with prevention or reduction of low back pain. Regular exercise improves brainfunction and the chemicals released in the brain during exercise helps to overcome depression,anxiety, stress and anger. Aerobic exercise and weight lifting strengthen the immunity systemand it also help in providing sound and undisturbed sleep.Life is much more enjoyable when you’re fit and healthy. You look good, you feel good and you aremore productive in your work. The increasing rate of diabetes and weight gain among children isa great example of why a good diet along with an exercise programme is important. Physicalfitness is important because many common health problem are results of sedentary life style andthey can be minimized or prevented by improving your physical fitness.

Tourism has emerged as the world’s largest industry. Growing rapidly in the last two decades,today it accounts for 6% of world output and employs some 100 million people around the globe. Ithas developed immense revenue and development potential and stands today as a unique naturalrenewable resource industry.Tourism—the travel based recreation provides people with a change of visiting a place and a breakfrom the monotony of daily life. It brings people of different nations together, allowing them tocome into close contact with each other’s customs and other aspects of life. The knowledge andexperience gained in the process can lead to greater understanding and tolerance and can evenfoster world peace. A study conducted by the United Nations has shown that developing countries,in particular, can reap handsome benefits out of tourism which greatly boosts national income.Tourism generates employment and adds to the entrepreneurial wealth of a nation. To promotesafe tourism it is imperative to understand the factors that hampen the growth of tourism andcheck them effectively. General instability of the nation, political disturbances, violence,terrorism etc. effects the flow of tourists.Whatever the problems, India must work hard to reap the benefits from this industry, as thecountry has everything to attract visitors from far and near.

Trees are blessing in disguise. They purify air. They maintain balance of gases in air. They controlair-pollution. They attract rain which is very important for our agriculture. Their roots hold thesoil together preventing soil erosion thus maintain the fertility of soil. Each part of the tree-roots,stems, leaves, flower and fruits are used in our food. They give us drugs. Fire woods is used asfuel.They provide shade and shelter to animals, birds and insects. To acknowledge their contributionwe celebrate Van Mahotsav. Forests are important to fight against green house gases which areimpacting climate change. Less forests would result in less rain.Deforestation has many negative effects. Cruel persons cut down trees mercilessly on a largescale resulting in destruction. Deserts will expand and rivers will dry up, their would be shortageof water and lot’s of acres of barren land. Dramatic effect is a loss of habitat for millions of species.70% of Earth’s land animals and plants live in forests and would not be able to survive withoutforests. A more workable solution to carefully manage forests resources is by eliminating clear-cutting tomake sure that forest environment remains intact. Cutting of trees should be balanced byplanting enough trees to replace the old felled trees.
