Andaman and Nicobar Islands located in the Bay of Bengal are by far the most beautiful holiday locations I have been to. Ranging from pretty beaches to deadly crocodiles, this large collection of islands isn't very popular among the tourists, which is why I am writing this article. Here are 5 reasons why the Andaman islands should be more popular.

1. The Baratang Islands

The Baratang Islands, located between South and Middle Andaman, are home to the indigenous Jarawa tribe, the beautiful Mangrove creeks, the strange limestone caves, and the beautiful Parrot Island. All of these, and many more, amazing wonders of nature can be found on this set of islands.

2. Diving

Andaman is the hub of various activities like deep-sea diving, snorkeling, sea walks, and jet skiing. And, it's totally worth it! The beautiful corals, the amazing fish, and the huge range of colors are a sight to be seen. Diving deep into the calm and serene ocean, where you can hear nothing but your own heartbeat, surrounded by magnificent creatures of nature, is the best feeling in the world.

3. Kala Pani

Andaman also has massive historical importance. The Cellular Jail, also called Kala Pani, is a prison that was built by the British when they colonized India. Being located on an isolated island, it was the perfect place to exile political prisoners. There was no escape. A tour of the prison, as well as the light and sound show, was very fascinating!

4. Corals

The Coral Reef in Andaman is one of the oldest ecosystems in India. It has over 560 different species of corals, covering a range of different colors and shapes. A simple glass boat ride to North Bay or Jolly Buoy can show you some amazing things.

5. The food

I'll let you decide this one for yourself.





Other than these amazing things, Andaman is also home to Havelock Island, Ross and Smith, Chidiya Tapu, North Bay, Mount Harriet, and Hut Bay.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
