Education in India – Burden or Opportunity!

“Education means to draw out virtue”. Education in India is not for bread or money oriented but it should be life-oriented. Education is not the amount of information that it is put into your brain and remains there undigested all your life .We must have life-building, man-making, character, assimilating fine ideas and making them your life and character goes a proverb.

In India education is needed which is rich in its value for growth of individual and even country as a whole. Just mugging up books will not help developing country like India to grow. Our education system concentrates on theoretical part more, in this nuclear age focusing more on practical part.

For example: We study rivers or lands in Antarctica or of some other country. What’s the use of it? Many people even don’t remember what they studied in the previous year when they get into a new year of their class.

Moreover, education needs to rebuild a person. It should have the power to make a person to handle difficult situations in life which are really needed to be seen or focused on. Why an educated person or a student commits suicide when he/she gets less marks or is failed. What’s the purpose of education if it doesn’t bring meaning to life and meaning to an individual’s life. Education should make a person to human being who will become sensible, matured, caring towards others and so on… People are not even bothered to stay united. There’s a topic “UNITY IN DIVERSITY” in our books but what’s the use of that education when people don’t follow and behave like animals when some issue breaks up in our country. So YOU THINK HOW IMPORTANT IT HAS BECOME TO CHANGE THE EDUCATION SYSTEM..………..

Today’s education system in INDIA is just like a bird without a wing or a man without a brain. India is a developing country that’s why it is necessary to keep pace with the new world. The education system just provides the qualifications but not the practical experiences. The students just mug up the answers and pour it down on the answer sheets. They don’t have to think. In other words, the education system is just feeding with golden spoons and thus in their later lives, they cannot produce what is needed by our country. The interactions between the teacher and the students are also less. The students are not allowed to choose their favorite to study. Every subject is made necessary for the students till 9th class. The education system needs to undergo drastic changes to produce ASSETS for the country.

Even when students go to school they are not interested and enthusiastic that they will learn some new things which would help them in their future life.

I hope this article of mine will make some changes somewhere and there the students will get to learn new things.
