"ਖੇਡੋਗੇ ਕੁੱਦੋਗੇ ਬਣੋਗੇ ਨਵਾਬ, ਪੜ੍ਹੋਗੇ ਲਿਖੋਗੇ ਹੋਵੋਗੇ ਖਰਾਬ।", These words are true in today's context as in our country, there is a great partiality & inequality in distribution of prizes. About 95% of honours and prizes worth lakhs & crores of rupees are given mostly to the players or sports persons and the people related to Art and Culture like writers, poets, painters and intellectuals etc. who play an essentiial role in inspiring, educating & awaring the masses, are always neglected. Every field whether it is Sports or Arts is great & respectable, where one field strengthens our physique and body; the other field, strengthens our psychology, character & behaviour. Government keeps on making the rich sports persons more richer by again & again honouring them with lakhs and crores of rupees, but people related to Literature & religion are never given much economic & moral support or encouragement by our State or Centre governments. Where in Sports, only the person who plays the game is benefitted from it; but a great writer or poet brings revolution & awareness in the whole society. If we see at the school, college or University level, various financial benefits and honours like Role of Honour & College Color are mostly provided to the Sports students, who are generally careless and poor in their studies and never attend classes regularly. This is one of the main reason why our young generation don't like to study Literature, Religion, Ethics and moral values, as they know very well that there are not much chances of getting economic benefits in these subjects. This inturn, reults in materialistic & individualistic approach among the students who only want to earn huge amount of money, whether by moral or immoral ways. Hence, this kind of approach hinders the human happiness, peace and self control, and increases anxiety, tensions, negative competition and finally various mental and physical problems. Therefore, these problems become a big barrier & obstruction in our country's progress, peace & social growth. So, we all should think seriously upon this issue.... - HARGUNPREET SINGH.
