I agree.Our education system needs a revamping.When the British were gone,we needed to develop our own system where more importance would be given to our own languages.
Knowing English is a parameter for intelligence nowadays.Wholesome learning is required,be it any medium of instruction.We were slaves for a long period so some things will require time.
I support practical and value based education that is not evaluated by scores where students learn through experiences and they can question till they understand.The syllabus should be restricted to about what we see around,what we ought to know quenching all the curiosities and learning to do the basic things needed throughout life.This will definitely put an end to the prevalent rote system and make teaching learning more efficient.Let teachers be the text books for the pupils.
