Education not only equips an individual to earn his bread and butter but also broadens his intellectual horizon and enhances the capability of understanding. It instils a scientific temper and acceptance of others point of view.
History teaches us that whenever we remained united no power could subjugate us.
Divisive forces such as communalism, casteism, regionalism and linguistic fanaticism have asserted themselves causing disharmony.
Educate our people especially younger generation about unity. It is necessary that this education starts right from the primary school stage.
Cultivate progressive ideas, en-lightened principles and moral values in the young minds.
Present system of education is devoid of reality. Re-structure the curriculum bringing in the desired changes.
Utilize education as the strongest lever for ensuring unity and awareness of oneness.
