Education system is Bharat has fared well so far to maintain the mix of modern teaching techniques with the old effective learning methods which were followed back in ancient times. However, it could have done even better by covering even more wide range of subjects in schools. While new subjects like Computer science have been included proactively for primary schools, subjects like political science & Moral science are not given much importance. This is the root cause of the fact that even educated Indians lack sense of responsibility towards Indian politics and society. As majority of the Indian ministers are uneducated, their decisions fail miserably on political & moral grounds, both which should be an pre-requisite for holding any position in Government job or ministry. While individual benefits are driving careers in corporate world, the scenario is not much different in Government jobs. In fact earnings (though illegal) of many minsters have outpaced some renowned corporate houses in the industry. Moreover, as more and more political parties continue to promote castism/regionalism, the national political instability has rose to a new high. Our nation can progress only if it is politically stable and this can only be done by spreading the awareness of political science from childhood.
I consider the above factors as degrade in schooling as compared to the learning syllabus & methodologies followed in ancient Bharat. In ancient India, Rishi (sages) ashrams were the schools where students were taught wide range of subjects which also included Spiritual advancement, Political science, Moral science etc. Effects of these subjects being excluded from school syllabus are quite evident. Youngsters are having tough time in dealing with stress levels in routine life, morality is striving to find its existence in the society etc. Although it is altogether a different fact that education is still a distant goal for many people in Bharat and around 30% voters are not even aware of what voting is all about.
And here's the outcome...Indian Parliament members
