 About the series : Good Citizen
This
series is an endeavour to
discuss the contemporary issues in
global perspective on patriotism, secularism,
honesty, terrorism, protection of child rights, unity and
compassion. A reading material which will pave the way
towards better understanding of the above mentioned topics
with present-day personalities and examples who have contributed
K.V. Singh
to these fields.
It will be a handbook for parents, teachers, students and educators to
understand the above mentioned feelings in their new dimensions.
Today's Patriotism is not only defending the country but also to abide by
its laws and support in its growth. Likewise secularism is not only
toleration but also mutual respect and bonding for each other. Honesty
is not only telling truth and loyalty but also about objecting to
corruption and nepotism. And terrorism is a threat which enervates
from inside and how our young minds can cope with this.
We hope that the “Good Citizen” series of books will
inspire the readers to contemplate and indulge to
make our country a better place.
