A person who is aware of his duties and rights in his society is a good citizen.
He knows that he is a member of a group with which he is associated by a thousand
And one ties. He realizes that he should live in harmony with other members of the
Society. Man cannot live with out a society. He cannot live alone. He must live with
His fellow human beings. But living in a society means co-operation with other
Members of that society. When you live in a society, you have to live as others live.
You have to accept the conditions and traditions that a society prescribes for its
Members. These conditions and standards of behavior are for the common good
And welfare of the society gives you some rights and some duties. A good citizen
Dose his best to do his duty to the society. He always keeps in view the interests
Of his society and state. He lives clear and honest life. He keeps away from such
Activities as may harm the interests of his fellow citizens. A good citizen is aware
Of the fact that he is indebted to his society in many ways. He knows that the lab our
And work of countless persons have enriched his life. His life, to a very great extent
Depends on others. He has received much in material and spiritual benefits from
Others. It is only just and right that he should pay his debts. How dose a good citizen
Pay his debts to the society? By living a useful and fruitful life. He lives not for
Himself alone. He lives for others. He pays his taxes. He takes keen interest in the
Affairs of his state. He dose not live in isolation. He is not selfish. He is tolerant
And kind and virtuous.
