(B) You read the story of the 42-year Usha Chaumer in “Beacon of Hope”. She was awarded “Padma Shri” in 2020 by the then President Ram Nath Kovind for Social Work. Using the hints given below sketch her character.
(Hints manual scavenger – started work when 7 – family work – untouchability – married when 11 – ate the left over from the houses – wore old dresses of the people from the houses they scavenged – Sulabha International set up an NGO called “Disha” – Usha joined Disha – learnt stitching bags, making lamps preparingjam and pickle – visit to Delhi – she wanted to abolish the system of manual scavenging – modem toilets – inspired 100s of women to give up manual scavenging – build a better society free of untouchability)
Answer:
Usha Chaumer belongs to the Scheduled Caste that worked traditionally as scavengers. Although untouchability is legally abolished, many Indians still consider members of some castes and tribes as untouchables and they try to keep away from them as far as possible. Usha started work when she was 7 years old. She got married when she was only 11. They ate the left-over food items from the houses they scavenged and they wore the old dresses given to them. Things began to change when Sulabha International set up an NGO called “Disha”. Usha joined Disha and learnt some skills like stitching bags, making lamps and preparing jam and pickle. Inspired by Usha hundreds of women were inspired to give up scavenging and take up other jobs. Usha wanted the system of manual scavenging to be abolished completely, with Usha’s active support, there was a move to build modem toilets in the houses. Usha’s aim is to build a better society completely free of untouchability. She was awarded “Padma Shri” in 2020 by the then President Ram Nath Kovind for her Social Work. She is an inspiration to many Indian women.

NOTICE
One of the biggest problems the teenagers face today is their lack of interest in sports and such other outdoor activities. They prefer to spend their time looking into their mobiles. Addiction to the social media is dangerous for the physical and mental health of the teenagers. Sports are important because they promote physical fitness, enhancing heart health, strong bones, and healthy weight management while reducing the risk of chronic illnesses. Sports also significantly improve mental health by releasing mood-stabilizing hormones, reducing stress and anxiety. Furthermore, sports teach crucial life skills such as teamwork, leadership, discipline, and time management, and foster social connections, community, and self-confidence.
To let the students know the importance of sports, an awareness class is organised. The Class starts with a meeting presided by the President of our Parents-Teachers’ Association. The President of the Irinj alakuda Sports Council will also speak on the occasion.
Venue : School Auditorium
Time : 10 a.m.
Date : 26 September 2025
All are invited.

Tom, I’m really proud of you. I saw your picture in the newspaper with the child that you saved from certain death. I shared the newspaper photo with all our friends. They too were so happy. Tom, I never thought you were such a heroic person. Indeed you risked your life to save that child. I saw the grateful looks in the eyes of the parents of the child. You are indeed the saviour of their child and I am sure they will be indebted to you all their lives. We are waiting for you to come back from your holidays. We, all our mutual friends, have decided to have festive dinner in your honour. Come back soon. You will be a big inspiration for all of us.

Question 5.
Conversation
On 8 September 2025, two friends Gopi and John went to see the Pulikkali in Thrissur. They were highly impressed by what they saw. On their way back home, they are talking about the Pulikkali they saw. Write the possible conversation between Gopi and John.
Answer:
Conversation
John : Gopi, I never thought, Pulikkali was so fascinating. My God, look at the make-up of the artists and their performance. I think there is no such performance anywhere else in the world.
Gopi : You’re quite right. Pulikkali on such a large scale is unique to Thrissur. There are minor variations in other towns like Irinjalakuda, but the one in Thrissur is really superb. Artists paint themselves as tigers and leopards, dancing with energetic moves to the rhythm of traditional percussion instruments like the thakil, udukku, and chenda. It serves a vibrant display of Kerala’s rich folk art and cultural heritage.
John : How is that all those artists have big bellies?
Gopi : Only pot-bellied men are chosen to take part in the pulikkali. Men with prominent potbellies are the main attraction as they are painted as tigers and perform a wild dance. The bigger the belly, the better, as it provides a larger canvas for the intricate tiger stripes and makes the performers’ movements more lifelike and impactful.
John : I’m really impressed. Next year also I will go to see it.
