Science is a curse to Human Beings

                   Science is called as blessing to human beings. But it is not real. In fact science made man’s life so terrible that it should be called a curse to human beings.
                   Though science helped man in his progress, it also led man’s life in threat. The weapons like nuclear bomb, pistols, rifles, guns and other armaments become hazard to human life. The facilities which science provides to man many time makes man idle and lazy. Science increases the speed of work but also resulted in loss of enjoyment and jobless workers. The balance of Nature is overthrown by man with the help of science. There is increase in various kinds of pollution and environmental problems due to science. Man loose his peace of mind and becoming a machine. The development in medicine also led to destruction of female babies before birth. Some medicines also have serious side effects. Seeing all these points it can be said that science is a curse to human being

                 Heavy burden of studies
                 No time for sports
                 More importance to academics success
                 Lack of proper infrastructure
Ans: Counterview:
Sports should be compulsory in Colleges
I do not agree with the above mentioned statement that 'sports should be optional in  colleges'. Whether it is a school or a college, students have a lot to gain from sports. It removes stress from hard studies. It also keeps the students very active and fit. Sports help in inculcating many important qualities like team-work, determination, self-confidence, leadership, reasoning, endurance  etc. that play an important role in the development of an individual's personality. Often, more emphasis on studies suppresses the need for sports in a student's life. Institutions should allot some time for sports for the benefit of the students. Young students are full of energy and it is vital to give way to their energy in the right direction. Also, providing a platform to raw talent would lead to the discovery of great sportspersons, who may bring honours to the nation in the near future. There should be proper time schedule for sports activities. Though academics success is important, heathy body and active personality is also essential. Sound mind stays in sound body. There is no problem of infrastructure as it is essential for each college to develop facilities for sports activities. Government is supporting sports by giving extra marks for achieving great success in competitions. Sports provides an overall learning experience for any individual, hence, it should be made compulsory in colleges.
