In modern times, the issue of doing
work
 after
retirement
 by human beings has become highly controversial. There are those who say that the public should not continue
work
 after the age of pullout. Others believe that they should engage themselves in activity. I completely disagree with the opinion that
people
 do not do anything after their evacuation
due to
 several reasons that I will discuss in greater detail in my essay. Generally speaking, there are a number of reasons why the community supports
work
 after
retirement
. Perhaps the main reason why
people
 are in favour of
this
 is because of loneliness feelings. After
retirement
, the maximum percentage of the
people
 in our nation have passed a lonely
life
. They have nothing to do except household
work
 and social gatherings.
Additionally
, children are not given proper company and

Due to
 loneliness, most of them go into depression.
Secondly
, After
retirement
, they feel like they are a burden to society.
On the other hand
, some
people
 oppose the above statement for many reasons.
People
 think that after
retirement
 older
people
 should pass their
life
 in a beautiful way.
Moreover
, they don't need to take the pressure. the government should give them benefits for passing their
life
. They can keep them busy by doing some personal activities, like gardening, tourism and other household jobs. To justify my viewpoint, I would like to give an example of a survey which was conducted by the University of Dhaka in 2022. The survey revealed the findings that older
people
 who have been doing some social activities and light
work
 like taxi driving, nursing etc have a
more healthy

life
 than those who do only household
work
. Having discussed the arguments and counterarguments, I would like to infer that it totally depends on the
people
 what they will do after his/her
retirement
. But the government should take some steps to run some programmes where volunteers can inform the
people
 about the pros and cons of doing
work
 after
retirement
.
