ESSAY: In 300-500 words present your thoughts on any ONE of the following issues *

1. Urban areas are rich because population causes prosperity. Do you agree? b. Should there be reservation in the education sector? c. Should there be any censorship on Google/Facebook? d. What do you think should be the government’s role in the economy? e. Should there be any laws regarding sex among consenting adults?

a. Urban areas are rich because population causes prosperity. Do you agree?

No. But it’s the other way round. The prosperity causes population. It’s the beautiful minds that create prosperity and rest surround them, aid them to make it even grandeur. It’s our survival instinct.

                       Consider Homo sapiens for instance. We could find a band having four members to 200 members. The leader who utilizes and mobilizes his resources better has likely to capture the prey. And everyone else eager to join that band, had given chance. As the band size grows, the resource at leader’s disposal grows and chance of capturing prey increases even further. And the cycle repeats.

                       During agricultural revolution, sites those are near to rivers flocked with humans. London was bulged during industrial revolution period. And the reason is one and the same. Prosperity attracts humans. Besides this, collectivism having synergy can easily changes the lives for better.

                     Cities offer hope, chance and platform to grow. They grow with us. We grow with them. Let’s say Mumbai is washed off by a thunder storm. Assume every imaginable asset is destroyed. But that matters little. Smart and able persons will work to build it again and the rest join them in the process. May be there is no Mumbai as such. There is an area where great persons are living and a lot of others surrounded them.
