260 Words Short Essay on the Value of Discipline in Life

Essay on the prospect and retrospect of privatisation in India

Industry
Privatisation is only a modern name assigned to the concept of laissez-faire advocated by Adam Smith and other classical economists.

7 Major Causes leading to Inflation in India

Industry
Major causes leading to inflation are as follows: Causes 1.

209 Words Short Essay on If I Were a Cloud

Essays

The cloud keeps floating in the sky till it is compelled by certain reasons to rain.This happens when it strikes a high mountain. This also happens when coolness in temperature in the atmosphere is caused by the abundance of trees, etc. Thus, I can rain only if…
