Gala day for education for all

By O.J.George

April 1, 2010 would be a historical day in the annals of India history, for implementation of compulsory education for children between the ages of six and 14.

Think of the situation, at least one crore children have been going without education in this country. They will all get an opportunity to learn the three R’s.

After the age of 14, all opportunities should be given for the exceptionally talented among them to pursue higher education, even if their finances don’t permit them to do so.

Scholarships, fellowships and grant assistance should be provided to them.

It is wholesome relief that the authorities have noticed the essential thing. India is a nation of young people. The young people should not go uneducated.

Education emancipates them, empowers them, and enlists them in the process of development of the nation.

The state governments should carefully utilise the funds devolving on them from the Centre and facilitate fuller education of the hapless children.

Perhaps in states like Kerala, the problem of children going uneducated may be less compared to other states. But even if there are a few among the tribals or unaccounted, or among the migrants from other states, they should be given all avenues for education.

In the years to come, no one can flourish in society without education, computer knowledge and awareness of societal developments. No one should fall back in life because of lack of opportunities.
