Education in India

In India
15 % of schools don't have drinking water facility.
29% of schools don't have any building.
42% of schools don't have toilets.
25% of schools don't have roof.
29 types of schools exist in our Indian society.
3.8% of GDP spend on education in India has been reduced to 3.6% .
20% graduates do not get jobs.
34 lakhs Pappus admitted in UP Board & 20 lakhs of Pappus failed last year UP Board exams.
It means 20 lakhs Pappus wasted the money invested on them.
Education is not exploration in India.
We talk about importing culture, foreign goods,Liquors,cars etc.We are fascinating about every imported foreign item but why don't we adopt or learn from quality education system in West? Why we do not spread the good quality system of education here as well.
We Indians considered to be very good in maths and basic science but why we failed to produce doctors , engineers and scientist who can invent rather just provide services mostly to western countries projects.We are dreaming to become developed nation by 2020.But, we can't even think of that if we are not properly educated.Every developed nation has high literacy rate and we people are dreaming to become developed nation without much about our outdated education system which just produce laborers not avid thinkers.

Muslim Identity


It is tough topic to write about.The situation is so complex.How can we get rid of terrorism?Why Muslims always referred when any bomb blast happens?Why Muslims are considered as synonyms of terrorism?Today communal harmony is in question.The adjustment of Muslims with other religion is difficult.The Muslims are themselves living in suffocated
environment which has been created by few of them.I am taking reference of a famous dialogue from "Sarfarosh" which says "kuch chand musalmano ki wajah se poori kaum ko badnam hona padta hain"(Whole community is considered bad because few Muslims.).It is very much true in present scenario.Be it New Delhi or New York,your first thought when you see a Muslim has been changed .In India Muslims are considered as hard working community.In India they were always referred as violent .The image has been created because of several massacre during riots.They have protested violently every violent attack done on him.But this image was not scary as everybody was assuming it was happening because of their violent nature when they have been under attack.Any thing related to their religion which was not dealt in right manner(as per them) become an issue and they responded violently.Communal harmony in India between Hindus and Muslims was loosing ground due to several riots.The riots was happening in different parts of India after a small interval frequently.That damaged the communal harmony between these religion to a certain extent.Despite repairing it the ruling govt then never dealt with the situation with maturity otherwise riots could have stopped.Very few people were knowing BJP at one time .But,they suddenly came into picture because of ruling Congress.Has the congress tackled the issue of Babri Masjid properly,The demolition was not at all there on cards.The demolition of Babri masjid acted as a catalyst to the hardliners and they started disturbing the communal harmony.Many of the young Muslims were motivated against the national govt.Then started the terrorism in the name of "Allah" which was result of mental harassment they felt after the demolition.Today we can see the number of blasts happening in the country by different outfits regularly. It has created a scare among us.When I say us I simply mean the general public which consist of Hindus , Muslims and all other religion' people.Those who are doing these blasts are in minority but they have created a havoc in majority.It is very difficult to control for you and rollback once you are into the business of spreading terror.Those who felt humiliation at any point of time being Muslim in India are taking a root to terrorism to show their anger and frustration.They can be anyone be it a S/W Engineer or college student of Muslim community.We have seen several examples of these cases in which a young and well earning youth of Muslim community is taking a route of terror to express their anger.The hardliners are motivating them towards "terrorism" in the name of "Allah".They are just using them to create terror.The hardliners are seeing at it as revenge and "Jehad".But ,basically they are aimless and baseless.Terror creates more terror.It inspires others to react in the revenge and do a terror act.I don't say that they should be dealt with flower in hand .Once motivated by the hardliners for sacrifice in the name of "Allah" they can never rollback.Rolling back become impossible for them.So they should be rather hanged in public for their unlawful terror works which takes hundreds of life and create unhealthy atmosphere in the society.My view point is that they should be dealt in harsh manner.
Few people are responsible of these terror act but it is the govt who is more responsible because they haven't dealt with the situation fine.
I have no problem in admitting that for some time I have been thinking that time has come when the Muslim as a community need to introspect and analyze and try to ask themselves - has something gone wrong somewhere? Why is it that every where in world, their identity is being taken as somebody who explodes bombs?
It is this so-called radical Islam or political Islam which is creating problems for their own community and society at large.Majority of sane and liberal voice is keeping quiet, or if not so, then not making enough noise to be heard by its own community.
Now people are saying that MC Sharma may be victim of friendly fire in Jamia encounter(Quoted by M J Akbar).They are questioning the patriotism of a brave police officer who sacrificed his life while doing his duty for the nation.Why they are making noise on Jamia Encounter where Atif was shot dead?Why they haven't done a rally for Keval Nandu when he was killed?
The first thing that should be done in this country that there should be full stop at the caste and religion politics from now onwards.Many bad practices has been stopped by the election commission of India and many more can be stopped further.The second thing govt should keep an eye on outside forces which are creating terror network in this country. They should be dealt mercilessly because they don't have any religion except terror.
