Indian Education System - A Future Nightmare

Indian Politics has been going through a weird phase. The 2014 Loksabha elections and a non-Congress Government’s majority made it very clear that India would go through a drastic change. But this change hasn’t been drastic only for politics, but for all the fields and sectors. Since then the attempt of changing the political mentality has started and one needs to understand this. In order to emboss their mentality and thoughts, education sectors have been under Government’s constant attacks. The syllabus and the books also have been changed to start a new era of lies. As everyone knows BJP is the daughter ideology of RSS which thinks that their base is Cultural Hindu Nationalism. Education till now was westernized was a common complaint of BJP ministers and people working under them and supporting them. After 2014’s triumph, the same ideology and changes in accordance with this ideology have spread even faster. Prof. Dinanath Batra, the founder of Shikshan Bachao Andolan (Save Education Campaign) is very clear about his principles. He also lodged a complaint against this western education system (he belonged to the same party and the principles). He banned many books that talk against and criticize his ideology. As he is an education expert, Government has given him several senior posts in Government Education Organization. The government has, in some schools, made his own writing, a part of compulsory study material. Gujarat Government has made his book ‘Tejomay Bharat’ compulsory non-academic books to be studied. Some of the things mentioned in this book are:
1)    Lord Rama first traveled through Pushpak Viman (aeroplane). This airplane was first invented by Indians. The first every in the world. Thus India is the mother of Aeronautical engineering.
2)    Vedic math is the only true math, and it should be taught in schools.
3)    Prof. Batra has invented so many new things without proof. One of them is: One couple did not have a child. They worshiped cow and they got a baby. Thus, worshipping cow is the only method if you do not have a child. This invention made by Dr. Batra has been made compulsory part of the study in Gujarat Government’s Class 8 science book.
4)    Not only that, he, in his book TEJOMAY BHARAT, he confidently made a statement that stem cells technology was first invented in India, and as a proof, he gave an example of Kunti from Mahabharata.
5)    In Primary school textbook, he invented a new thing saying that automobile technology too was invented by Indians, and as an example, he mentions ‘Anashv Rathh’ from Mahabharata.
6)    He further goes and says that the live commentary made by Sanjay for Dhrutrashtra in Mahabharata is the perfect example of telecasting, and that too is a product of Indian origin.
7)    The best thing is the Preface of this textbook, that has been written by Mr. Narendra Modi. He must have written the Preface without reading the book, I think.
8)    During the inauguration of Amabani Hospital, Mr. Narendra Modi showered his wisdom on the nation saying that Lord Ganesha’s elephant head transplant is the example of plastic surgery that was invented by Indians thousands of years ago. Mr. Modi too proved himself as a student of Prof. Batra’s school.
9)    Prof. Batra has made changes in Haryana state school syllabus as well. In those textbooks, instead of having the National Pledge or Preamble, he has put SARASVATI VANDANA.
10) This book starts with his own poem: I have seen a dream of building education on the base of Hindutvv, and nationalism.
11) Rajasthan Government syllabus has Parshuram’s character study (a complete book) (A recent announcement)
12) IIT Khagpur is about to announce Vaastrushatr in their study.
13) On December 3, 2014, BJP minister Ramesh Pakhriyal in Loksabha made a statement that Indian astrology is far advanced than western sciences, and it should be an integral part of school syllabus, and BJP Government would try their best in doing the same.
14) Act 51 (A) in Indian Constitution talks about inculcation and promotion of science through schools and educational organization. Here, everything is going opposite.
15) The government emphasizes on promoting Swadesi (Made in India products) and to do that they are creating and writing a wrong history. God save this education system.
16) The ideology of a student and his thought process is the result of his school and college education. Formal education demands rational and scientific belief.
Changing school books is ok, but mentioning wrong and irrational things are not acceptable. This is like hanging rationality and science publically.

Dr. Narendra Dabhilkar, Comrade Govind Pansare, Dr. Kalburgi were murdered because they promoted scientific belief and rationality. Now the government wants to murder logic and rational thinking.

My Love in College

Image
My childhood belonged to the 90s movie era. Why I am connecting my childhood with the 90s era and its memory and nothing else has a reason. We 90s kids (if not ‘we’ at least ‘I’) grown up watching movies where love blooms in the college between the hero and the heroine. The hero will do N number of things to impress the heroine (things include singing and dancing for her, physically teasing her, doing pranks, proposing in front of the whole college on the college sound system and so on). The hero usually would belong to the poor class family with mother sewing clothes on the sewing machine, coughing, wearing white saree (come on she is a widow), and the heroine would belong to a rich family where she could buy anything. Most of the movies had the same theme with a central theme of revenge of father’s death. Yes, we’ve grown up watching these kinds of stuff. But trust me, in that era, Romance was in the music, and the music was everywhere. I used to watch a lot of movies, and still ...

Dear Readers, Greetings!!! Welcome to Stories of Patryachi Chawl.  Life is full of surprises and shocks. We call these surprises and shocks as interesting stories. Everybody around us has a story to share, a story of his or her own to narrate, an incident to say and laugh on. But not everyone is equally talented in narrating the stories, penning them down and then further blogging it (just the way I do on my blogs).  Most of us who are browsing the internet and have visited my blogs do belong to the strata of the society that is far away from the world of people living in same. The intentional use of English language in this blog is to make us; the well-educated, well-cultured white collared people, see the lives of some extraordinary people living in a slum. Their stories would not be like yours and mine. Because their stories will have hunger, struggle for existence, everyday problems and so many things at their core. Their stories are stories of succe...

Episode 1: The Prologue

Image
The conversation between that father and his younger son had heated up that night. Mother was sobbing in the corner of that 8 x 8 sq.ft. kitchen-cum-bedroom space, filled with a Godrej almirah having a broken glass, an iron casted rack to keep plates and pans, a kerosene stove- their need in an emergency, kept on the floor. The conversation didn’t seem to end without any result that day, because the father was drunk and the son fed-up, not of his father’s drinking, but of himself. “Don’t you want to go to school? Don’t you want to be someone?” Father shouted while staring angrily in those moist but stubborn eyes of his son. “I am asking you something. Don’t be a stone. Answer me.” His voiced raised more. The elder brother was standing in the room outside. He didn’t know what to do at that moment. “Look at your elder brother. Eat his shit to learn something from him. You cannot even be compared with his nails.” Father was about to burst into cry. The choking and tumbling v...
