Human behaviour
Surprisingly after globalization, it is noticeable that human behaviour has come to a radical change. The racial and family influences along with education and moral sense of duty play a pivotal role in shaping one s character and behaviour. Now in the third decade of the 21st-century human behaviour is a thing to be researched as people speak one way and think the other way or act another way. Today most of the people s words are full of guile and they think only of their benefits. The devil idea of selfishness and oppression has engulfed their minds and it is now almost impossible to come out from this hell. This happens because of a lack of a true sense of education and reformation in the family. So, to make a good and healthy society a subject like behavioural science should be introduced from the school level.

On the night of March 19, in a government guest house in Sadiya, a town in Assam’s Tinsukia district, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Chhattisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel and All India Congress Committee general secretary in-charge of Assam, Jitendra Singh, were engaged in a strategic discussion over the party’s campaign for the ongoing assembly election in the state. Later that night, Himanta Biswa Sarma, who was leading the BJP’s campaign, sat listening to the 30-minute-long conversation playing on a cell phone of one of his aides. A local Congress leader present at the guest house had secretly recorded the conversation. This incident reflects to what extent Sarma went to ensure a victory for the BJP, a party he joined after quitting the Congress in 2015. Rahul Gandhi had declined to make Sarma chief minister of Assam in place of the incumbent Tarun Gogoi at the time.
