Solution
The graph offers a look at the online behaviours of Indian social media users, broken down by age group. All age groups collectively use social media at the highest rate for news consumption. Teenagers play online games at the highest rate (81%), compared to all other age groups. All age groups find it less common to search for people and profiles online, but users in their 20s dominate this cohort because networking seems to be significant to them. Users who are in their teens and older are more interested in making online purchases; the highest percentage among them is 73%. It's worth noting that the percentage of users doing product research rises with age, with those in their 40s, 50s, and 60s having the highest percentage. The percentage of users engaged in downloading activities, on the other hand, decreases with age.
Finally, the chart shows that social media is an important platform for getting news and staying connected with people in India for people of all ages. Teenagers are the most likely to engage in online gaming, whereas older age groups are more likely to engage in product research and online purchasing.

Orlando lived happily with the Duke and his friends, but he had not forgotten the lovely Rosalind. She was always in his thoughts and every day he wrote poetry about her, pinning it on the trees in the forest. 'These trees shall be my books', he said, 'so that everyone who looks in the forest will be able to read how sweet and good Rosalind is.'
Rosalind and Celia found some of these poems pinned on the trees. At first, they were puzzled, wondering who could have written them; but one day Celia came in from a walk with the news that she had seen Orlando sleeping under a tree. and she and Rosalind guessed that he must be the poet. Rosalind was happy to think that Orlando had not forgotten her, because she loved him as much as he loved her.
One day she and Celia met Orlando. He did not recognize them because of their stained faces and simple clothes. He thought they were a shepherd boy and his sister. He made friends with them.

The piece of turf. with the little daisy in it, was thrown out on the dusty highway. Nobody thought of the flower which had felt so much for the bird and had so greatly desired to comfort it.

Mahatma Gandhi's thoughts on Satyagraha 'It is said of "passive resistance" that it is the weapon of the weak, but the power which is the subject of this article can be used only by the strong. This power is not passive resistance; indeed it calls for intense activity. The movement in South Africa was not passive but active ... .' 'Satyagraha is not a physical force. A satyagrahi does not inflict pain on the adversary; he does not seek his destruction ... In the use of satyagraha, there is no ill-will whatever. 'Satyagraha is pure soul-force. 'Truth is the very substance of the soul. That why is this force is called satyagraha. The soul is informed with knowledge. In it burns the flame of love ... Non-violence is the supreme dharma ... 'It is certain that India cannot rival Britain or Europe in force of arms. The British worship the war-god and they can all of them become, as they are becoming, bearers of arms. The hundreds of millions in India can never carry arms. They have made the religion of non-violence their own ...' |
