Indiscipline is the most pressing problem of our country. Corruption comes in when there is no discipline. Aristotle once said,"Discipline is, therefore, the habits of acting according to rules. It is a prompt obedience to the orders of the authority. Whenever we go, we have to follow certain rules.
Man lives in society. He can make progress only in the society. So the well being of society must be the good of an individual. Sometimes an individual has to sacrifice his personal interest for the good of the society. This is done by discipline.
Discipline is necessary in every field of life. Without it, there will be chaos in life. If the members of a family do not obey the head of the family, they will never be happy. They will not decide anything as everyone of them will like to force his choice.
Discipline is necessary in the playground. Players must obey the captain, if they want to win. If every player plays according to his own will then the team will easily lose the game. They can put up a good fight if they remain united and act as a single unit. They can put up a good fight if they remain united and act as a single unit. This is only possible when there is discipline.
Discipline is very necessary in schools and colleges. If the students do not obey the rules of the school framed by the headmaster, in consultation with the teachers, for the common good, results cannot improve. In the long run, the students will suffer. In my opinion, such education is useless which does not inculcate discipline.
Discipline is very essential in an army. Military discipline is known to everybody. A soldier has to obey his commander. He cannot argue and reason. It is his duty to obey and die, if necessary.
In the administrative sphere, the value of discipline is no less important. It is the duty of the peon to obey the clerk who has to obey his immediate officer. In this way, the whole system works and runs, everybody has to follow certain rules.
Today we find the condition of our country pitiable. The officers do not care for government property. The clerks have no time to work honestly and sincerely. Markets are full of adulterated goods. Villages have been deserted and cities are overcrowded. All these are the result of indiscipline. Unless it os checked, unless the people are disciplined, all talks of a better world are meaningless.
