Education System And Our Expectations From The New Education Policy

-
Kindly envisage that if our institutes and schools have actually helped our youngsters to identify their talents by delving into their strengths from a budding age and help them to grow their skills instead of letting them follow similar pattern like a herd of sheep and leaving them ambiguous for the life afterwards; how wonderful would the world have been!

Our education system has always been a circumscribed one with very limited and restricted scope for creativity and skills. Till today it follows a very narrow pattern and routine with a set frame of coursework which everyone has to go through with or without interest. It never focused on polishing the personality of an individual and imparting skills out of ones interest and creativity. It is the major drawback and limitation our system which lacks the true meaning of education with low attention and scope on the overall development of an individual. From suggesting a limited set of books and syllabus, outdated curriculum, focus on marks and percentages or inculcating the habits of cramming of data and 'rattafication' as an integral part, it has become a crash course for passing just exams and nothing else.
Why don't we give freedom to individuals with little guidance for choosing their own paths out of curiosity and exploration of different fields.

Let anyone become whatever they want out of choice, interests and curiosity, not because of a mere option. Whatever path one chooses for himself/herself is their path, let them explore that and enjoy them. We are no one to decide things for others especially when it comes to careers. If you out of force, demarcation and restriction bring somebody to follow a set framework and academic system, how many of them will become good scholars, academicians or researchers? Tell me... don't you think that will just be an additional load on the already suffering system.

We are looking forward to this new Education Policy optimistically. Let's hope for some good changes to evolve. But I think that selection processes for our institutions should also change. A mere marks based percentage and qualifying an exam is not a good selection criteria, because more or less we all know that in our country passing of an exam is all about memorizing things, data and facts (not understanding); it is never based on one's creativity, skills and overall personality of a candidate suited for a particular course.

Say No To Toxicity #let_every_thought_get_words

Bulleh Shah a famous poet and sufi-saint once said, "Break the mosques and the temples but don't break a lovable heart, because in a heart full of love resides the God." If he would be alive today in our times, he must have been trolled, registered FIRs against him or even being attacked, beaten or smacked by the mob. Suppression of free speech is seen everywhere now, because everyone wants to take over the control and project his powers accordingly.   No body has patience and tolerance to listen especially when their views and points of discussion are not matching or coinciding. We are getting more afraid of contradictions and disagreements. This is what we call modern extremism. Extremism will take us nowhere. Becoming more and more fanatic day by day is not a solution. You are not doing any good to the country and the world if your heart is full of hatred and toxicity. Stop thinking about your religion and start working for the environment, the people around you.

Animal Abuse And Our Celebrations

-
Yes, I'm outspoken, opinionated and I will express my views,  my side of the story. I have always supported pollution free Diwali, water wastage free Holi and yes I totally support killings free EID. When will people understand that our celebrations and rituals are not more important than environment, nature and love. We should always put our religious sentiments aside whenever we are talking rationally, specially for the environment. Rearing thousands of animals in a husbandry culture like agricultural farming and then killing them at once is not natural. And yes, it has troublesome impacts on the environment. Sentient, innocent and voiceless beings are not for our play. We should not decide the fate for them. Let them survive on their natural ways and habitats. Finally those who comment that people's and farmer's economy depends on this; my simple question, if your economy depends on drug smuggling, would you support that? If somebody's economy depends on making bombs...

Hypocrisy and Selectivism: Trending These Days

-
Real hypocrisy starts when you start filtering for what to take stand & for what to create a hype and for what to not say a single word . Its basically be called as selective activism and has nothing to do with overall progress, liberty or humanity. People take selective stands and show partial/biased or prejudiced solidarity with only those causes that matches and fulfill their perception/ideology/agenda/ initiative or vision. See how hypocrisy prevails by taking an example: Its shameful and very unfortunate that most of the people who were getting over-emotional on a shameful incident of elephant killing or a selective incidence of cow killing, have never ever said a word on beef, leather industry, illegal forest produce trafficking including innocent animals and celebration of festivals by killing thousands of animals at once. Our society is full of hypocrites, those just want to fulfill/project and propose their narrative and perception only.   And after read...
