Lesson Equal Behaviour
4.6

The day may be approaching when the whole world
FACTS will recognize women equal to men.
to Understand Susan B. Anthony

Equal behaviour is an act or action in which we deal with people of different
castes, cultures, languages, genders, religions, occupations, etc. without showing
any discrimination. Behaviour shows our personal conduct, character, attitude
and action.
Civilized citizens always maintain equality among all irrespective of their classes,
castes, genders, religion, culture, etc. Everyone is equally important for the
nation and before the eye of law social harmony, love, understanding, politeness,
selflessness, etc. are the basic elements for promoting equal behaviour. There
should be no differences among the citizens. All are equal before law. A person
should be judged by his deeds and qualities not by his caste or money.
Practice of discrimination on any ground is punishable by law. Discrimination
leads to misunderstanding, disharmony, hostility and chaos among the people.
Therefore, it is very important to have equal behaviour among each other.

A good citizen always behaves in a good manner and shows equal behaviour
to everybody in prosperity of the nation. There are many ways to show equal
behaviours. Some are given below:

Mutual understanding and co-operation
Respect to the elders and love to the juniors
Respect the feeling of the others
Share feelings, ideas and opinions with each other
Speak politely, show good behaviour and help when required

Do not discriminate on the basis of caste, culture, class, language, gender,
religion, region, etc.
Proper use of public property and teach the same to others

Promote equal public participation
