Public opinion may be passive and false or active and real. It is claimed in theory that all governments are ultimately based on the opinion or sanction of the governed. But we find that in practice the people's rights are often trodden down and tyranny and oppression are allowed to continue. The government does it not because the people want it to do so but because they are too idle, too uneducated and too disunited or timid to oppose the govern ment. Such public opinion is passive and false and not an active verdict. But when we find people alert, intelligent and determined to let the government know their will, when they want to exercise actively their voice in the management of their country, we have an instance of true or active public opinion. True public opinion is formed by and expressed through the press, the platform, political parties and educational institutions. These have sacred duties to perform, duties on which depends the ultimate good of the entire community. The press today wields a tremendous influence, So it should support the causes and move ments and condemn the wrong one's and thus teach people to form correct opinion. A free and fair press ventilates the grievances of the public. Thus a healthy relationship develops between the people and the government through out an unbiased press. Political parties also help to create and regulate opinions. No less important part is played by the educational Institutions which train the minds of the young people who will be the citizens of tomorrow. It has been said that modern Germany and China have been made by their universities. It is necessary that the young and the growing minds should imbibe the spirit of fellow-feeling, the spirit of tolerance, the habit of compromise, and show due regard for the feelings and opinion of others without which a democratic society cannot function, let alone succeed. When there is true awakening of the people, we shall have the real and conscious public opinion. And justice will reign on earth and truly will the voice of the people be the voice of God.

Paddy transplantation in Punjab is a very hard labor-intensive back-breaking job. In the transplant season, teams of special people swarm the entire rural landscape employed by the farmers and can be seen laboring away in the fields under the hot sweltering sun. Farmer Jagtar Singh has a full-time help at his sprawling farm who goes by the name of Hari, and who hails from Allahabad, UP. During the paddy transplant season, it is up to Hari to rope in his brothers, sons, and cousins from his native village to complete the task well in time. All his people are skillful and masters of the trade and equally efficient at their jobs. So, this past season, this is how the work went. Hari started the work and after 't' hours was joined in by his brother Jaggi. After another 't' hours, Neelu, their cousin, also jumped into the fray. So, after every 't' hours, 1 person kept on joining the team of already working men, and this process kept on continuing till the completion of the work. The last person worked for 't' hours. In the last season, the very same men had completed the same work working 2 shifts of 12 hours all of them working simultaneously owing to some peculiar weather conditions and time constraints. Jagtar Singh is a fair and just paymaster which is why he faces no labor shortage at this crucial time and which is why the whole 'Hari clan' are more than happy to work for him and are at his beck and call. He pays each of them individually proportional to the work done by them. This time around, Hari received 11 times as much as Surinder, his eldest son, who was the last person to join in. In how much time was the work completed?
