'AN AMALGAMATION OF UNITY IN DIVERSITY’

An amalgamation of Unity in Diversity means remaining united even after
living separately. When the people of different religion, race culture ,different
ethnicities are welcome equally with proper respect. This is called Unity in
Diversity. India is the best country proving this concept for many years.
Indian culture is an amalgamation of different tradition and customs and how
different communities present and organized themselves in term of morality
and etiquette. This unity among all the people in this country shows our
strength and our richness in culture. Each and everybody is individually
respected and given importance.
Despite having different festival in belonging to different regions, we celebrate
it together. With so many religions in the picture, everyday marks some
celebration or others. There are festivals like Diwali, Holi, Durga Pooja, Lohri,
Eid-al-Fitr and many more. We celebrate these festivals together.
Although we may speak different language we are different clothes and follow
different religion we belong to one country and stand united as Indians. We
Indians are like a giant tree which has many branches and leaves but has one

trunk that connects us to our roots. The presence of such vast number of cultures, languages and
religions prove the phrase'an amalgamation of Unity in Diversity'.
'Unity in diversity':
This is God's supreme secret in His cosmic game.
