Where is a stop or reform?

In our so called big democratic country its too easy to get education because we have a large no. of colleges or even universities or has become many deemed universities. The only aim these educational groups seems to provide blind education on the basis of quantity not based on quality. No doubt Indians are becoming literate and the percentage of their literacy is going up everyday. BUT here the main question is are they becoming master of their knowledge? THINK for a moment and all of us got many examples for saying ‘NO’ in answer.
So here if i say that most of the Indians like us becoming JACK OF ALL TRADES BUT MASTERS OF NONE by earning lots of degrees only. Here the thing is that we need to take the idea of making ourselves better or perfect in one or two skills even if it’s not bad to be jack of all trade but that is of no use till we are not perfect in some particular field. Secondly, their is a need to look after this that these daily opening of new educational institutes or deemed universities where stands to provide true values of education field.
A few months back a news came that the UGC has taken strict stand to give affiliation to this newly opened universities and many of them are going to be put off but still there are a lot of educational institutes and deemed universities are going on and making fun of youth’s future.
And the so called youngsters are becoming fool by having day dreaming after listening their presentations and high promises. Why they don’t analyse by themselves before getting enrolled in such kind of universities or institutes. Here efforts from both sides are required from govt. and as well as from the side of people to have a perfect education system in our own country.

कितने अजनबी हो गए है हम
दूर से भी झलक नही देखते
कभी पास थे इतने एक दुसरे मैं झलक थे ढूँढ़ते
तुझे तो रुक्सत कर दिया
तेरी यादों को रुक्सत करू कैसे
मेरे हर लम्हे मैं है तू ख़ुद से जुदा करू कैसे

Practical knowledge
At present we are emphasizing bookish knowledge a lot. But the need is for practical knowledge. A person who has only theoretical knowledge cannot attain success. Our government must do something about this because bookish knowledge is little knowledge and it is rightly said that little knowledge is a dangerous thing. A person having work experience can become more successful than a mere degree holder.
Practical knowledge will make us independent. It also helps us to know all sides of a chosen career. Students will become ready for their work mentally and physically. Then they must devote their full interest and time in their work. For this purpose it’s very much necessary that education should be free from the hands of the politicians. Government must think seriously about practical education for students rather then thinking about the privatization of education. Only proper practical knowledge along with book knowledge can prepare us for a better future life.

baache ya bade

dhund se dhake paate,

thand se thetturte paate,

marne ke dua karte hain.

bhuk se vilakte baache,

roti dekh khane ke aas karte hain.

aankh main masumiyat,

per duniya ke baat karte hai.

kitna bada umaar se bana diya,

hakikat ne aaj inko,

aapno ke hote hue bhi,

begano ka hat thamte hai.

saath ke aass

dur leharon se ,
samander nahi hota.
kise ke kahane se ,
koi apna nahi hots.
pyar ke baatien sab karte hai,
kahne se kabhi pyar nahi hota.
log aate hain chale jate hain,
kahane se kabhi haasil,
koi mukaam nahi hota.
mujh se jayada kon janta hai,
manzilo se fisalna kya hota hai.
gir kar khud uthana kya hota hai,
fir bhi unhi rasto pe chalta hai dil.
use shayd fisalne ke aadat hai,
dekh kar duniya ke raang,
har baar dur hona chahta hai .
fir bhi satraangi chakachondh nahi bhulti,
aakele hone per bhi ,
tere saath ke aas nahi tuteti..
