"Kapil Sibal" aur "10 ka dum"....!

-
Had I said 'Salu's 10 ka dum'..it would have an instant connect. Anyway I am in no mood to strain my 'gray cells' over the reality shows. Let me instead carry on with Mr.Kapil Sibal's rejuvenation program on "Children,Education,Board". Does this title sound as weird a title....as "Jinnah,India Partition"...? Never mind.!...let me for the moment figure out "10" and tension...!
We all know that a normal child and the majority of them generally get into a serious study pattern only when there is a 'Board Exam' on the head. Now by doing away with 'Board Exam' for 10th class children,it will be a "moja hi moja" time for the 10th class children for 2 years at a stretch. Practically speaking Mr.Kail Sibal and his team are happy in achieving a scheme of things that does't ease pressure but postpone it to re-surface with vengeance after a lull of 2 years. With no Board exam in the 10th, the children generally will not get much noticed for their 'activities' both by parents & teachers and therefore chances of their getting into wrong 'company' and 'misadventures' cannot be ruled out. Apart from this when they come to 12th class after a 'stress' free 2 years,their ability to cope with syllabus, parents,teachers and peer pressure are bound to be more stressful and at times even prove fatal.
'Aam Admi' would have been more happier if Mr.kapil Sibal and his team would have come out with a 'success' story that would have achieved:-
a)Removing discrimination in education on the basis of gender,cast,religion, economic and family back ground.
b)Meaningful & quality education becomes 'affordable' to 'Aam Admi'
c)Mushrooming of schools as a business venture stopped.
I think it is time that our government's flag ship idea "Aam Admi ka sipahi"..steps out from being a mere 'banner' to become....shall I say a "Quick Gun Murugan"...?
Mr Kapil Sibal..we appreciate your 'enthu' for reforming education system. However by removing "Board examination" in 10th class you have only achieved to keep the
10th class children's 'mind' idle in a very 'formal' way....and I am sure at '60' and with 'siblings' you do understand that an "idle mind" is a "devil's workshop"...!
Now am I trying to be a "devil's advocate"..? Well what's wrong in being one...!

    I was the youngest of the 4 siblings and the only son ,but that  never  made me precious and  pampered by the family. My father was in the army. We all  grew up in cantonment environment, hopping almost every 2 years  from one Cantonment to the other  Like from Allahabad’s Draupadi Ghat we came to Calcutta’s Fort William and  then to  Bangalore Cantonment  Bangalore was the only city where we  remained stationed for almost 5 years before getting  shifted to Delhi Cantonment in 1961, 4th of July to be precis It was the year 1959-60 and I was about 10 years old  studying in the 6th form in the Army’s  Regimental school . Around this time my  father decided to put me into “King George Military School” .This  was a ‘day’ Boarding School exclusively for Defence personnels . It is now called “Rashtriya Military School”. There was an aptitude test which I cleared but failed the written test. I was happy, a...

DE LHI Gasping!!

Delhiites have turned   indifferent to the " Toxic Air" that they breath  They have stopped bothering about the "smoke screen " that is keeping away   "Sun light"  from giving them the ray of "HOPE"  to keep their lungs "Sun Shined" . Like "AGE"  for them now  even the  AQI (Air Quality Index) has become a sheer number .They have long since stopped reacting to the AQI  shooting up. They have lost their "JOSH"" to protest for their fundamental right to breath. Delhi is the very seat of the duly elected "POWER".  of  World's largest Democracy  The "custodian" of this Democracy reside here  at   "7 LOK KALYAN"  but remain hardly visible in and around the city This  "custodian"  continues to remain the very "Most"  'Frequent Flier' of our Democracy and  the only  'STAR '  campaigner for the political party that he comes from.    Getting re-elected...

The Blessed Curse "Nostalgic flashes" !

   When you already  know a little about the  book it does create an  interest “Blessed Curse” was just that.  This book is about an  Indian middle class household  that is holding together three generations in generous harmony with all those ifs and buts about the generation gaps  The book undoubtedly is  an inspirational read  especially at a  time when the concept of   “nuclear households", remains a widely spread idea among the Millennials  It recalibrates your mind to question , debate ,accept and  celebrate every generation’s point of view  This book is the story of Jagdamba Prasad & his wife Pushpa Devi living with their son, daughter in law and grandchildren in one of the colonies of East Delhi’. The author in this book takes the reader through good, bad and ugly about each generation. The beauty is, it does not come as a bout of episodes but as “cosy chats” between the members of the family...
