Respected Principal, teachers and my dear friends, a wonderful morning to all of you. Today on this special occasion, I would like to speak some words on the topic- Bullying.

Bullying is a rising problems in educational institutions everywhere. It refers to the assertion of dominance over an individual by displaying aggressive behaviour towards them. It can either involve physical or verbal abuse, or both. And this increasingly digital age, cyber bullying is the greatest evil of them all.

Bullying leads to irreversible harm, causing feelings of depression, anxiety, alienation and even suicidal impulses in the victim. The trauma of bullying can affect someone’s entire life, so we must take strict steps to prevent it! Raising awareness about bullying is the first step towards combatting it. In addition, all bullies must be severely punished.

To conclude, we must all do our best to prevent bullying! Thank you for listening to me so attentively.
