PASSAGE
The goals of our present system of primary & secondary education are to prepare students for the examination system, which will take them to the best technical & professional institutions in the country. While the teaching of Science & Mathematics has been upgraded over the years and teaching of the Humanities & Social Sciences continues to be straight jacketed in grotesque ways. Those areas of the Indian locality that ought to form the proper subject like caste, poverty & environmental degradation, if we are to create a responsible & aware body of citizens, form no part of the syllabus. The capacity to think inadequately & critically about problems that plague modern Indian society, which really ought to be a prominent part of the humanities curriculum is perceived to be intractable from the point of view of the examiner. Least the evaluation becomes subjective; every effort is made to reduce both History and Economics to a series of facts, a one-to-one correlation between facts ensures proper systems of grading.
