"Education bhi ek Right hai" RTE

"This is our book of business"

The day comes when every Indian child was waiting from last 100 years, where right to free and compulsory education is come into existence in the State. Basic education to be primary rights to each and every child of India. This is one of the biggest steps taken by Indian Government.

ON April 1 a historic law comes into being - the Right to Education Bill, providing for free and compulsory education for all children in the age group of 6-14 years.

The positive wind of child education was blowing from last couple of years, and its intensity increased year by year. Every person whether he belongs to poor cadre of society or from a rich class well understands the real importance of child education. They know that education not only increasing the knowledge of their child but also help in their development of both physiological, and psychological. Educated people understand the real dynamics of the country and world. It also helps in their intellectual development. They will be become part of core system not ancillary one. Policy makers also understand the nature of education to the children, i.e., what kind of education is required? How people will take it? And couple of other questions. But when it turns to the amount of pressure to child, it is devastating. Syllabus or curriculum should be designed in such a manner which decreases the weight of bags and other education supportive system like tuition etc. One of the biggest importance of child education is that it reduces the number of child marriages in society, which also include unmatched and unwanted marriages. Even every parent want their child to be self sufficient with full of honors- they earn their livelihood by not doing working in lower kind of work but will work in the offices.

RTE, Right to Education is self explanatory word, which means, this right will provide free and compulsory education to every child of India. There is no reason to deny the fact that after India independence, there occur many reforms in this sector. People of middle and higher class understand the importance of this from years ago, but this RTE lead people of lower class and BPL to get full use of it. Data heralded that within the proximity of 1 Km. 98% Indian society is covered with primary schools. On the other hand approximately 92% areas have high school with in the proximity of 3 Km. Although with this kind of infrastructure in India, children are still away from the reach to schools. The reason may be that children are busy in doing work of home, or working in the agricultural field, taking care of cattle, taking care of their own child by doing early marriages. Some children drop their education in the mid because of lack of finance or capital. In the area of RTE, children who are bagging on the street, living scarce and unsafe life and others are will be undercover of this umbrella.

The basics of education should be beyond the sky of free and compulsory education. Student once enter in the educational institute will get all kind of practical and theoretical knowledge. It should be two way communications where discussion on the topic should be fruitful for the development of children. Curriculum should be designed in such a way that it foreseen not only present near time but also consider future aura. Friendly environment is needed in such kind of ambiance by dissolving traditional approach of teaching.

Everything should be elegant in near future so that people prefer their children to take admissions in government schools, where real quality and practical knowledge can be delivered. All kind of basics like good friendly environment, broad thinking, quality teachers, good management, result oriented curriculum, time to support required curriculum, number of regular periods, bio-facilities like clean and hygiene washrooms, pure water, mid-day meal, etc. should be there. For supporting practical knowledge schools have laboratory of Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Maths where real problems can be applied and make student understand the same.

But I believe that there should be no reservation in terms of seats allocating to scheduled caste and scheduled tribes or other minorities. Although government can support them financially but on knowledge part there should be no consideration and discrimination. We (India) need to think in this direction as well.
