Integrity
Day
Integration means the unity of the nation. It has
been rightly said “United we stand but divided
we fall”. A nation which is not united falls like a
house of cards. It is a particular sentiment that
binds together all people in one common bond
no matter what their religion, language or
history is. It is strong cementing force whereby
all kinds of people live together peacefully and
can identify themselves as a part of a single
whole. We belong to India. India is ours is the
feeling which constitutes the very basis of
national integration.
India is a vast country with a vast population. If
we get united, this great human force with great
resources of the country can carry the whole
world with us. The worst tragedy that has
devoured up India is complete national
disintegration. It appears that India is not a
nation, but simply a crowd of separate
individuals each differing from the other, yet
living together.
It is the foresight of our founder Henry
Gissenbir who believed that in some time of
tomorrow JCI will stir the people towards the
establishment of a permanent and everlasting
world peace. Now is the time to act.
INTEGRITY DAY is a day that makes you feel and
celebrate the quality of honesty and the morality upright
in our own life that adds value to our life, the society and the
country that we belong. The objective of celebrating the
INTEGRITY DAY can provide an opportunity to Children, Youth
and Individuals by introducing themselves to Values and
Principles.
February is the right month to have this program as the school
and colleges will be working with full swing. On 2nd February all
over the nation Jaycees shall celebrate Integrity day. INTEGRITY
DAY would be celebrated on 2nd February of each year from
2011 to 2013 as National Integrity Day and from 2014 go
global as INTERNATIONAL INTEGRITY DAY.
