12, Albany Cottage Nanital 20th March, 20×× The Editor The Hindustan Times New Delhi Sub: Job-oriented Education Sir Through the columns of your prestigious newspaper, I want to highlight that education system in India needs a new definition and direction. Our present education system is merely a continuation of the Macaulian system of the colonial era. It is highly loaded in favour of academics. The old practices and traditions continue. The school education provides little or no vocational and technical training. The results are quite unproductive. Our educated young men and women don’t get meaningful employment. Their frustration finds outlets in crimes and violence. It doesn’t augur well for the nation and its youths. The Government and the concerned educationists must take stock of the education system from new and meaningful angles. First of all, vocational and technical education and training should be made an essential part of high-school education. Every student must be asked to choose or select his trade or vocation. Adequate coaching and vocational training must be provided at the school level itself. I hope the government and the educationists will rise up to the occasion and give a new definition and direction to our outdated education system.
