Education, no doubt holds
equal significance for every community of a nation but today we will emphasize
upon the condition of education in rural sector. Rural sector generally lags
behind the urban community in terms of facilities, technology, health,
recreation, entertainment and sadly education too. If we go deep down into the
matter we will somehow be able to understand that this dawdling education
system might be the reason.
All of us might have visited
villages, seen the educational institutions, if not visited would at least have
heard about the condition of schools and colleges in rural areas. I feel very
downhearted to state that this poor education system is one big hindrance in
development of our nation. First of all there are a very few educational
institutions whether government or private and those institutions are
miserable. They do not have well trained faculty and no proper agenda to work
upon. The children when not provided with basic education will never have any motive
to get higher education or even strive for it.
Government needs to improve
the education system in rural areas by keeping a strict check and balance on
the institutions. If the literacy rate in rural area goes up, it definitely
will have a very positive effect on economy. More educated people in backward
areas will try their best to bring some change for betterment of their own
people and area. That includes the utilization of natural resources available
in rural areas to earn decent income on national as international level as
well. They will work upon infrastructure, small businesses, health and
educational facilities and will try to find out and fill the gaps which in long
run will improve the overall economy of country. If it does not impact people
on large scale, it would at least change their way of thinking. It can ultimately
be a first step towards awareness and change.
