In today 's world, studies are the biggest competition in the world.
Education is not what it is supposed to be.
In this country, millions of students are victim of an unrealistic, pointless, mindless rat race
Political interference in education and educational institutions.
Focus on skill based education
Education system is more of testing knowledge than of teaching skill.
Helps student enjoy and understand education better than knowledge based
