Education System In India

we are in a country where people are spending their parent’s life savings and borrowed money on education – and even then not getting standard education, and struggling to find employment of their choice. In this country, millions of students are victim of an unrealistic, pointless, mindless rat race. The mind numbing competition and rote learning do not only crush the creativity and originality of millions of Indian students every year, it also drives brilliant students to commit suicide.

• Focus on Skill Based Education

• Reward Creativity, Original Thinking, Research and Innovation

• Get Smarter People to Teach

• Technology Infrastructure for Education

• Re-Define the Purpose of Education

• Effective Deregulation

Education system in India is failing because of more intrinsic reasons. There are systemic faults that do not let our demand for good education translate into a great marketplace with excellent education services.
