PROBLEMS IN THE INDIAN EDUCATION SYSTEM PART-2

 

Hello guys. Welcome to the blog!!! If you have not read part-1 of this blog so please read that.

So, as I mentioned in my previous blog; there are other problems too. The biggest problem is our education system is more focused on theoretical knowledge than practical. Due to this many students do not understand the concept of the subject; then to get good marks they choose rote learning. Which causes an adverse impact on the creativity of a child.

Infrastructure is also creating hurdles while providing qualitative education. Students who are living in cities; can afford to get admission to good private schools that have access to computers, laboratories, etc can perform well in his/her academics; than those who are living in villages. This creates educational disparity among them. So, It is the responsibility of our system to provide a school with all basic infrastructure in every village, tribal area, and hilly area.

Privatization of Education led to the institutionalization of the system; this makes education a business. Here I am not saying that the privatization of education is not good; my point is just that education is a basic need and the fundamental right of every child in this country and if someone drops from school just because they cannot afford expenditure on education then privatization is wrong.

The last point is, Dr. Ambedkar once quote that, “Sanskrit should be our official language”. Because traditional Indian sources like Vedas, Upanishads, Geeta, etc have tremendous knowledge which needs to be known to every Indian because it helps us to create a different identity than Western countries. When foreign countries like the UK, Japan, etc can conduct academic programs on Sanskrit, Mahabharat, etc then why cannot we..? It helps the student to understand the power of Ayurveda, an ancient infrastructure that we can use today to Make a New India .
