In what does education contribue to the process of nation building explain? With suitable example from india. 20mark

Answer 1

Education plays a very critical role in deciding growth of nation. Educated citizens of the country brings fame, wealth and prosperity to the country which help in development of a country. All this helps in nation building.

Nation building is defined as constructing a national identity with which it is known by the world like having a flag, national anthem etc. Nation building works on the unification of the citizens in the country so that country can remain in peace and also remain stable in a long run. Now the question arises, What could be the best tool for unification among citizens ? The answer is education.

People who are educated are aware of what is right and what is wrong. Their minds works in somewhat similar way. Thus, educated people are united by the sense of thinking, by the sense of right and wrong.

Education helps in dream building. It helps a person in analysing the path which will help him achieving his dream. Achieving his dream will give him a sense of fulfillment in his life. Also, It is a fact that such citizen respect their country the most. These citizen work for their country in whichever way they could, hence help in nation building.

People like Sunder Pichai (CEO of Google) etc. reaches to the height where world not only sees them as a brilliant mind but also praises the country which laid the foundation of such brilliant minds. It is education that helped them move up and it is India that laid the foundation. Hence, nation building.

Saying all this, it does not hide the fact that India’s education system has been crippled for years. With the poor population of more than 80% in the country, it will be fair to say that India has not been able to provide effective education to almost 80% of the children. This is extremely depressing figure knowing that education helps in nation building.

Hence, there is an urgent need to wake ourselves and start to work towards improving our education system. I know that it is very easy to say than to implement. But, at least we can give it a try. There are NGOs like PrayaasCorps etc. who have taken up the responsibility of providing education to the needy in whichever way they can. Helping the deprived to get the best education possible with missions like SHIKSHA MISSION etc. Spreading awareness among the masses regarding the importance of education to children and by motivating these children that education can help them in breaking the chain. By Getting involved in such NGOs , we can also contribute in strengthening our education system and thus helping in nation building by unification among masses and by having more Sunder Pichai like citizens who make our country proud on an international stage

Answer 2

There are lots of ways that education helps. I will cover only one point, and let others have their say.✅✔✔

In the U.S. we have a republic, where the people elect officials to represent them and govern in their interests. (I note that this representation business has not been working so well in our country lately, but the reasons for that problem is a different subject. )✔✔✔

An educated electorate that can read and make decisions, based upon an ability to reason and analyze, is a prerequisite to having a republic. This won’t work with an uneducated and uninformed population. This is why you see so many corrupt autocrats in countries with large illiterate populations.✔✔✔

The people who are unable to understand what the situation really is will tolerate a government that does not work for them. They don’t know any better, and are more likely to accept bad unrepresentative government.✔✔✔

We know an educated population won’t guarantee a good an honest government, (just look around) but the lack of it will insure you will have a corrupt dictatorship. It is often taught in history classes that democracy requires a large and educated middle class. I believe this is a profound truth.✔✔✔✔. Hey mate HERE YOUR ANSWER
