Village Life
Essay : 01
Life in a village is friendly, simple and easy. People in the villages can have more scope for natural pastime which cannot be expected in the city life. The people of the rich and middle class seem to be happy in the village. But the poor people often lead miserable life. Life in a village is almost calm and quiet except some unwanted incidents created by evil minded people. Most of the village people are easy going and co-operative. One comes to other’s necessity. People in villages keep themselves busy with works. Men look after the work outside and women perform their domestic work. Fresh vegetables, fish, fruits, etc. are available and cheap in village. Though most of the people in village lead a very simple life they are not to be away from enjoying different cultural programs and many other items of entertainment. Generally, the celebrations are quite plain and simple. But the aged of them do not attend the functions. They are happy with their house and harvest. The village people lead the life of plain living and high thinking. They think high, because they think in the terms of God and religion. The village mosque maintains their social and moral upkeep. Most of the village people get up from early in the morning and perform their work before the sun sets. Village life is tranquil and enjoyable despite few problems. Many people prefer village life only for its healthier environment.

Indian Village
India is a land of villages. When a tourist comes to our country, one of the things of great interest is the seeing of an Indian Village. Villages differ from state to state in appearance and style of living. Villages in North India and villages of South India have agriculture as a common occupation but in Punjab it is more mechanised. Hence, Punjab villages are very rich.
I went to Kerala with my friend to see his native village Palani. Kerala is rich with lush green vegetation and every few yards you will see a pond with lotus flowers. I had never seen such breathtaking scenes full of coconut tree, mango groves and small rivulets. All, young and old know swimming. One can see snakes crossing roads just as we do.
Village people live a very simple life. Their poverty is visible in their atmosphere. There are two temples in the village and daily some one or the other festival is going on. In the evening the deity is taken out in a procession and men and women dance to religious tunes. There is only one primary school and some children don’t go to school at all. There is no medical-centre or health-centre. The villagers should get at least these basic necessities. We have to pray for that Ram Rajya to come soon.
