The Big Question: Who is to blame for India's poor education system?

It is ultimately the politicians who are responsible for the sorry state of affairs in education. They meddle in every field to take our country to the last on any international ranking. Still they think they are serving their country better than others !

The argurment can go both ways..people are blamed for not making the right desicion and chosing the right leaders and on the other hand leaders are blamed for making poor choices for their country. We need leaders who are educated and who can guide their people in the right direction and educate without differences.

The damn politicians will destroy our country and spoil our children.Their own children will be sent abroad and quality education will be given.They need uneducated youth to hold their flags.Our Indian communists will be the happiest to learn that India is 72nd and China is Top. Communist leaders will try India to be the last and China to be the first.The communists does not love India,They love communism. We Indian youth look forward to a SAVIOUR to save india from these ungly politicians.

Till Reservation system continues in Education System suppressing talent people, we never get good quality education. How can we expect quality in education from a teacher who secured 35 to 50% marks in qualifying exam?

The administration and their corrupt systems are to blame. Even fraud universities exist in India. The political class is giving permissions to establish engineering colleges even without a lab. The minorities in India use their freedom to exploit. Above all, the reservation system keeps away the talented.

POPULATION itself...&...lack of education among indian leaders!

It is very well expected!.

Indian govt ne poor childrens ke liye kafi sari schemes nikali hai,lekin ise students ka bad luck kahe ya hamare corrupt politicians good luck ki poor childrens ke pass tak kewal promises hi pahunche hai.Corruption ne poore desh ko deemak ki tarah jakad lia hai.Mid day meal se bacchhe bimaar pad rahe hai,aanganwadi ka astitva hi khatam ho raha hai,govt school ki halat kisi se chupi nahi hai.Worst system of Indian govt.

"According to this criterion, the 2011 survey holds the National Literacy Rate to be around 74.07%. Government statistics of 2001 also hold that the rate of increase in literacy is more in rural areas than in urban areas." ( "govt record in there files ....but the truth is above ")
The political parties who r asking for vote's ..........................." shameless "........ 72nd :-(

who? me, u and our leaders in all areas eighther a political, a industrialist, a religiouse, or a social. every leader mostly wants his blind followers, more followers he had more weight he or c got! " jiska jitna bada tola(crowed) utna bada leader. if they had followers with good mind using capacity n thinker than there is a chance of oppose or rebelian activity! an u know who will take this risk? so hey bharat k bhavya nagarik ab to ......... tuje hi hona hai parth aur shree krishna! one way v prefer inr. 25oo inr teacher by govt. n otherway v worry about our education! in fact v all wants our children a money machins not a good citizen , !

It is definitely a sorry state. The system itself is wrong. There are hundreds of examples that the teachers selected for educating the younger minds lack the educational skill them selves. There should be regular test of the knowledge level of these teachers. The teachers who do not know to write a leave application & have a standard format can not be expected to teach. There should be regular checking of their educational skills if at all we are to allow them to teach these tender minds. I am sorry for these statements, but these are true.

Lack of vision and commitment for the future of the country has destroyed the education system of the country. Our education system is in the hands of none. It is orphan and has been kicked by every one but never towards the goal in the last 60 years. We our unable to know and hard to understand that what we need on the education system that can make our country free of corruption and and people committed for the nation not for oneself, which is predominant in our society. We live for ourselves and not for the society and countrymen. This is our education system.

t would have been interesting to know, what kinda of students from india, were put to test ? do they mean children from school like delhi public, kendriya vidyalaya, students from CBSE affiliated schools failing? or is this taking into consideration random schools including the 1000s of ones that exist in villages constituting the chunk, which make the acclaimed school kids a minority?

where is time for leaders to think about students and quality of education. They are more concerned about how to loot and corrupt the system so that they can make even more money, how many leaders have looked into books even once and what they know what is good they will try to block one chapter or one para which creates tension in opposite party. When such people become leaders then only god can help. It Seems our leaders first go to quality schools, oxford university before taking over the ministry. The way cricketers are performing it is proven time and again they are good in home conditions where grounds and bookies help them win the matches.

As long we have caste/religion column in application forms, as long as our top politicians dont fall at the feet of swamijies, as long as admissions is made on caste basis, our country will not be on merit. we would like t have 100's of dr.apj kalams, mother theresa and the teachers/lectures who do not teach based on caste and creed. only if castesim is eridated at grass root level, we can see growth. let us not blame politicians, let us blame the society which is full of groups based on caste/sub-caste.. Is it possible in india. We have highest no of committees, innocent is punished, while the smart guy with money wins every thing. a guy who has money, get any seat with money. This is india. It will never change, as long as we preach castisim in society

We need educated leaders and an educationist at the helm of affairs of the Education system......a person who has no background of handling education and its policies should not be given total control.........if this scenario of interference in the indian education system continues, we should be prepared for the worst in the coming years.....

Lets Create a Protocol that consists of "TOP 25 standards" that MUST be followed in every school -have this under Law, coz some way around some violate the rule. Circulate and Propose to each and every School and lets start working towards it!

Quality depends on how Teachers' are in and around every School.... So they Really Matter!!!! I mean A Teacher MUST be Versatile in giving Student that progression/the push they require!

Reservation System and Political power in Recruitment of faculties in college/Universities are main causes.

The blame should be puton the selection commitee , who had selection whose students. For a beauty pagent , where are some many test, for a cricket selection there are some many procuders, then why not for this exams.

good news at least india is second last, i thought would always be last,to reach china level india will take 100 million years at least
