0:0:12: just step out of the house and look
0:0:14: around you will see different colors and
0:0:17: hear different sounds isn't it we also
0:0:20: see nature behaving differently some
0:0:22: days it's sunny well other days it's
0:0:25: rainy at times it's even
0:0:28: foggy
0:0:31: have we ever stood by the Sea and seen
0:0:33: its changing color or watched the sky
0:0:35: change its
0:0:36: [Music]
0:0:39: Hue this is diversity the presence of a
0:0:43: wide range of qualities or
0:0:47: features like in nature diversity can be
0:0:51: seen in the way people live in this
0:0:54: [Music]
0:0:56: world we the human beings are social
0:1:0: beings and we live together in groups
0:1:3: which again is
0:1:6: diverse the immediate group in which we
0:1:9: live is our family it consists of you
0:1:13: and your parents siblings and
0:1:19: relatives and when a group of families
0:1:22: live in the same area or has some common
0:1:25: links then they are called a
0:1:28: community
0:1:32: and when a large group of people live
0:1:35: together within the geographical area of
0:1:37: a country under a common government then
0:1:40: it's a
0:1:44: nation but remember Within These social
0:1:47: groups people perform different types of
0:1:50: activities depending on the interests
0:1:53: abilities skills and education which in
0:1:57: turn fulfill the needs of everyone in
0:2:0: the
0:2:2: group for example a farmer grows crop
0:2:6: for the rest of the community but
0:2:9: depends on the other members of the
0:2:11: community for his other needs like
0:2:13: clothing Health Services
0:2:17: [Music]
0:2:18: Etc in your family too you must have
0:2:21: seen that every member plays their own
0:2:24: role your mother cooks food for you your
0:2:27: father Works outside to earn a living
0:2:33: Etc communities to depend on each other
0:2:37: example the village community supplies
0:2:40: food to communities in towns and cities
0:2:43: and in turn they depend on them for
0:2:47: things like garments tractors medicines
0:2:54: Etc India is a big country with a
0:2:58: variety of geographical and climatic
0:3:1: conditions people in different regions
0:3:3: have their own food own dress own
0:3:7: language and own way of
0:3:12: life in our country diversity is seen in
0:3:16: our families
0:3:18: too we have nuclear families in which
0:3:21: only parents and their children live
0:3:23: together and is usually common in
0:3:28: cities we also have joined families in
0:3:31: which parents children grandparents and
0:3:34: other close relatives live under a
0:3:36: common roof and share the same kitchen
0:3:40: these are usually common in
0:3:42: [Music]
0:3:45: villages in India a family is usually
0:3:48: headed by a male member however parts of
0:3:52: Northeastern India and Kerala have
0:3:55: matrilineal families but the woman is
0:3:57: the head of the family and the property
0:4:0: passes from mother to the
0:4:4: daughter diversity in India can be seen
0:4:8: in languages too India has 22 major
0:4:11: languages and about
0:4:15: 1,625 dialects of various languages that
0:4:18: are spoken within the
0:4:23: country languages most commonly spoken
0:4:26: in India can be broadly divided into two
0:4:29: groups on the basis of the origin the
0:4:32: languages spoken in the Southern India
0:4:36: belong to the dravidian group while
0:4:39: those spoken in Northern India are
0:4:40: derived from Sanskrit besides these
0:4:43: there are languages usually spoken by
0:4:46: the tribals which neither belong to the
0:4:48: dravidian group or to the sanskritic
0:4:54: group English though a foreign language
0:4:58: is widely spoken through throughout the
0:5:0: country people especially those living
0:5:2: in the cities speak more than one
0:5:5: language children how many languages do
0:5:8: you
0:5:8: [Music]
0:5:11: speak diversity is seen in religion too
0:5:15: though most Indians are Hindus there are
0:5:18: followers of other religions too like
0:5:21: Islam Christianity sism jism Buddhism
0:5:26: each religion has its own festivals
0:5:29: rituals and place
0:5:31: [Music]
0:5:33: of a Hindu goes to a temple a Muslim to
0:5:38: a
0:5:38: mosque a sick to a gurudwara and a
0:5:42: Christian to a
0:5:46: church their purpose is same that is
0:5:50: pray so we can say that the diversity in
0:5:54: religion is about doing things
0:5:56: differently and not doing different
0:5:59: things
0:5:59: [Music]
0:6:1: things we also find people in different
0:6:5: region dressed
0:6:9: differently people in the cold region of
0:6:12: Kashmir wear a loose Woolen robe called
0:6:17: Fen inside this dress they carry a conri
0:6:21: which is a small basket containing an
0:6:24: earth wear pot in which life charcoals
0:6:27: are
0:6:28: placed
0:6:31: Rajasthani men wear large colorful
0:6:34: turbin to help them protect their heads
0:6:36: from the extreme heat and make their
0:6:39: life brighter in the dullness of the
0:6:46: desert sari and doti is a common attire
0:6:50: in most of the parts of the country but
0:6:53: they are also worn differently in
0:6:56: different
0:6:58: parts
0:6:59: [Music]
0:7:1: the geographical and the climatic
0:7:3: condition of a place determine the
0:7:5: economic activities of a region most of
0:7:9: India has flat land and warm and rainy
0:7:13: climate this people here are engaged in
0:7:17: growing crops even we find the different
0:7:20: states grow different crops Kerala Tamil

0:7:49: chief
0:7:50: [Music]
0:7:52: occupation diversity is even seen in the
0:7:55: food we
0:7:58: eat people in cold places eat lots of
0:8:2: nonvegetarian food as few crops are
0:8:5: grown
0:8:7: there whereas people living on the
