Short note Or Summary on Quaid-E-Azam And His Vision For Pakistan

In the essay, "Quaid-e-Azam and his vision for Pakistan", the personality, struggle, thought and vision of the Quaid-e-Azam have been described. He was an openhearted man. He was away from narrow-mindedness. He believed in Hindu-Muslim unity and worked for it but the attitude of the narrow minded Hindu leaders of Congress compelled this broad minded leader to change his idea about the Hindu and ultimately he started struggle to achieve an independent state for the Muslim of India. He was true in his struggle that he succeeded to achieve Pakistan. His sincerity for Hindu-Muslim unity was highly appreciated and recognized even by the Hindu leaders like Gokhale and Sarojini Nidu.
Qauid-e-Azam was a farsighted leader so he realized the plan of Hindu-Muslim polarization and made the Muslim aware of it.
He disliked orthodoxy. he believed in freedom of religion. He didn't like to impose his religious thoughts on the others. He was strongly of the thought that every citizen is equal in the eyes of the law of the state. No discrimination should be there among the people on the basis of religion or caste or creed. He thought religion is a personal matter not a state matter.
The Quaid-e-Azam's principle was justice and complete impartiality. He did not believe in dividing the people into groups or sections. He believed in the unity of people. He wanted the people to be  recognized and known only as the citizens of the state.
He was desirous that every citizen should co-operate with the state so that the country could progress and develop and Pakistan could become one of the greatest nations of the world.

Short note Or Summary on Health Is Wealth

In our towns and cities, some people sell uncovered sweets, burgers and other foods. We buy them and eat. We do not think of  ''What would be the consequence?''.  Those things are exposed to the flies and the dust. The flies and the dust are germs carrier. When the flies sit and walk on our food the germs stick to the foods and when we eat that food the germs get into our bodies and make us ill.

One day Kashif went for shopping with his mother. He wanted to buy sweets. His mother told him not to buy sweets or any food which was exposed to flies or dust. Flies and dust carry germs. Germs are microscopic organisms. If they get into our bodies, they can make us ill. They enter our bodies through food or dusty air. Therefore, we  should avoid eating such open food which has flies or dust on it. We should protect ourselves from mosquitoes also. We can get malaria from a mosquito bite. We can kill mosquitoes by putting DDT or kerosene oil in stagnant water where they lay eggs. Health is wealth. If we are not healthy, we can not work hard.

The concerned authorities should also take necessary action in restoring good health and sanitation condition in the cities. As selling of exposed food should be checked. Awareness of the people should be increased, and adequate arrangements should be made for spraying so that the people could get rid of the mosquitoes.
