Plan

Proposed Structure (what specific items will you need to tell us about in the problem and solution sections of your essay):

Basically, I will be doing a detail research on the following points:

· Who are the major follower and believer of these superstition?

· What is the root cause for these superstitious belief and how can they be resolved?

· Any specific group or people being victim of such beliefs and activities, if yes who are they?

· Any benefits to any group of people because of these beliefs?

Opposition to your position (what concerns will you have to address):

People who are believer of these beliefs should have the opposition arguments. People who are hugely religious might also fall under the same category with opposition views.
