A thought

Right from the inception of mankind, education in the broader sense has been prevalent in one form or another. Earlier, research-oriented education was the norm of the day leading to a comprehensive and continuous process of learning. But now, education has become the means to achieving the end called quick self-gratification. Prompt wealth-creation is expected out of the learning process today which focuses on increasing the students’ earning potential rather than their intellectual growth. Quality in education has been relegated to the back seat even as the impressionable minds of children have been diverted to the pursuit of making quick bucks.
