Maharishi Dayanand Public School organized an Essay Writing Competition on popularization of Science in collaboration with Science and Technology Department, Chandigarh. About 100 students participated in the competition. This competition was divided into two categories i.e., junior and senior. Through the competition, students conveyed the message that Science allowed us to understand how things work, but also how to make things happen. Science makes everyday life easier. The scientific discovery of a method for harnessing electric energy changed people's lives forever. Electric light benefits people every day in inventions. Science is the reason for the quick pace of modern life. Science makes life safer. Science generates knowledge by means of new discoveries that are often met with disbelief at first, but such knowledge eventually becomes widespread and common. Every school-age child knows the earth revolves around the sun, although this knowledge was rejected when it was first discovered.
