What is Diversity? 

People come from various backgrounds which are cultural, religious, and from regional backgrounds. It is crucial to account all of this when we try to understand how different people around us enrich our lives. In a country like India, where every state has a different language and different cultures, we have more diverse people and cultures that make our country more exciting and different. Diversity helps us understand how various cultures influence each other and what makes each culture so different from the other.
