A book in every child's handIn Rotaract District Organization 3250 we believe that everychild has the right to enjoy good books. And we believe theyshould have stories set in surroundings familiar to them and in alanguage close to their culture. We believe that to make booksaccessible to every child, the price points have to be very low.

A nation of children who love to read 19Research reveals that 1 in 3 primary Rtr. Subham Lalschool-going children cannot read DRR Elect, RID 3250fluently. Children who are unable toread are unable to learn, as they can’tunderstand what is being taught tothem. And that contributes to the highdropout rates in schools. Fortunatelymany non-profit organizations areaware of this problem, and are workingtowards getting children to read.However, once children do learn toread, it is critical to nurture that habit,so that they begin to enjoy it, andcontinue to read. To cultivate a readinghabit, it is essential for children to haveaccess to books and libraries.Donate-a-BookDonate a Book is a unique initiative tohelp bridge the gap between those whowant to help children read and thosewho need books for children. The ideais to build a Reading India together bydonating storybooks accessible tothousands of children and spread thejoy of reading. Our sole aim is to seemore Indian children read, and that iswhy every rupee donated underLiteracy Mission goes towards thebooks, and ensuring they reach thechildren for whom they are meant.I wish you all the very best and putforth my promise to support everysingle action at every walk of [email protected] The Chain || Literacy Edition #[email protected] August || 2018-19

Spitting – a bad habitOnce the English magazine, “The Week”, made a listof traits for which Indians are identified / known allacross the world. One of the important traits wasspitting.Yes, Indians spit a lot. If anywhere in the world, youfind a person spitting, 75 % chances are that he maybe an Indian.Spiting in common places is a common phenomenonin India. People will keep spitting whether they are ina garden or at bus stand or at railways station oranywhere else. After every 2 to 5 minutes, they willspit.The persons, who chew tobaccos or consume panmasala / beetle etc, spit very frequently, but even theperson who do not consume these dirty things, keepon spitting.Spitting is a very bad habit. It makes us dirty. Spittingat public places is unethical also. Moreover, thepersons, who spit, make the public places dirty.When I had come to Ranchi first time with my friendand trying to find out a rented house, I met with oneProfessor Saheb. He was having two flats and wantedto sublet. But he sublet one of the flat to me only, notto my friend because he found him (my friend)spitting a lot. He was of the opinion that since myfriend spit a lot, he would make his house dirty!In general also, the educated and well behavedpeople do not like the persons who spit a lot. It istreated as one of very bad habit.So, I advice the youngsters to avoid this habit. Neverspit at public places. Be a clean and likable person. -Rtn A. D.
