EDUCATING ABOUT PRESENT EDUCATION POLICIES......
The previous week, I was hospitalized because of which I couldn`t post any articles . Due to sleep inducing injections and doses I just didn’t got to know how two days had gone. But on the third day , no sedatives were prescribed. When I woke up mom had just arrived with my breakfast. Sitting besides me, with the news paper in her hand she was reading her sweet (or sometimes harsh) nostalgic memories of her teen days.
Then her house was situated near the kozhikhode Govt. medical college. She remembers that one room of the house was always booked for relatives whose closed ones would be admitted at the college. The way she had managed to study for final year exams along with making arrangements for those relatives now also remain indelibly impressed on her memory. She recollects that during those days a well planned system had developed in which it was government’s duty to provide schooling , higher education , medical treatment in well subsidized rates . Therefore no one thinked twice for where to go for these basic needs other than govt. organizations. That days for becoming an engg. Or medical student one had to be a hard worker rather than a rich guy. Deserving ones became good professionals no matter whether he\she was financially weak.
Yes , it’s a agreed fact this system developed in our country was not flawless but today , instead of some corrective actions , the rulers are perversely replacing this setup by one through which envisaging equality will be merely foolishness . The other day we heard about seven year old slumdweller boy was banged by a school bus. The poor child always dreamed of going to school and thus he used to come over there to see the school going children. Long back such a dream had given birth to legends like DR.KALAM, DR.K.R.NARAYANAN, DR. AMBEDKAR….. and today the same dreams are killing them. Now-A-Days we can find sumptuous educational institutions at every nook and corner where the sole aim is profit and thus they are of no use to the basic common people. If such is the situation India is never going to become a rich human resource pool of skilled persons but just unenlightened uneducated slaves
The irony of the situation is that instead of more funding to present infrastructure rhe govt. is thinking about a new bill which ensures cent percentage primary education which is just contradicting their present education policies
