District level handwriting competitions to start on Aug 20
Karimnagar: Under the auspices of the Collector and DEO, Karimnagar district level handwriting competitions will be organised for government students, government officials and teachers in collaboration with the Paramitha Educational Institutions of the local city, said the Head of Paramita Educational Institutions, Dr E Prasad Rao.
In this era of computers and artificial intelligence, we are almost getting away from our handwriting, which we considered very valuable for centuries. These days, we have almost stopped writing. Students are also finding it difficult to write, the hands that used to hold the pencil and pen since childhood are being forced to use cell phones. The hands that used to hold the pencil and pen are almost forgetting to write due to the use of mobile and computer. We all know that regular and good handwriting has many benefits, including preventing diseases like dementia that come with age, Dr E Prasad Rao said.
