India, a name that represents a vast country is my motherland. Nature gave all her beautiful gifts to this country. The Himalayan range stands on her north as her crown and the Indian Ocean washes her feet at south while Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea kiss her east and west coasts, respectively. Throughout the country there are vast expanses of green fields which supply food for more than 120 crores people of India. For her very rich and ancient civilization India is renowned in the world as a mystic country. There is mystery in her natural beauty; mystery is there in her life-style. I love India not only because I was born here but also because of her beautiful landscape and simple and quiet life. There are many regional peculiarities in our country. We have diverse languages and religions, many types of dresses and habits. But we all are the same Indian in spite of the diversities. Historically, geographically, politically and culturally, India is one nation and we have some common national characteristics the most important of which is our love for peace. For hundreds of years we have lived in this vast land with millions of people, many of whom came from abroad and we lived in amity. We have lived through foreign invasions and foreign rules with some kind of acceptance. The peoples of India are not very hard working and that may be due to our tropical climate. But our intelligence is renowned all over the world. The Indian scientists have already started their work to take the country into 20th century.
Above all, the national characteristics of Indian people have been gloriously translated into her ceaseless attempts at spreading the messages of Ahimsa, Equality and Peace.
