Sir,
Education plays an important and judicious role in bringing social, economic, civic and political reforms in our vast society. Right from the ancient times to present day, education has contributed at lot for development in all spheres. But something pains us now, when we listen to Television, read the newspaper or come in contact with other sources of information about murders, rapes, killings terrorism and so many types of crimes, happening now-a-days. If we seriously study the basic causes behind this, we will find that certain draw backs in our education have made it somewhat dull, as it does not create the true spirit of sympathy politeness in behaviour, respect for all in society, merciful attitude for others tolerance and love, equal human feelings, devotion and dedication which are considered to be the real blessings of it. Our society, our children and young community is coming under the grip of various evils like corruption, loot, easy money making, killings, smuggling dereliction of duty and misbehaving with others and so on which is quite unacceptable to a civilised nation.
Education is a means and a vital remedy to wipe out all this rubbish from the society by giving new direction, thought and sensitivity to learners by introducing certain particular moral values, teachings of great persons, saints and gurus.
In short, a large scale change in ideology of the people, particularly the young generation is only possible if proper education is imparted to them.
Yours etc…
