Saffronizing education

Whosoever it might be, Removing great works of these famous litterateurs are trying to twist and mutilate History. It's blunder for which History cannot forgive these villains.

 

Adding chapter of Hemu Kalani is not saffronizing of education. Hemu Kalani was a freedom fighter. Second thing Urdu is not popular in Rajasthan. No doubt Hindi and Urdu is sisters. Teaching of Sanskrit is not evil.

If this happens then it will signify that there is no respect for quality education, culture, tradition and history too. Education sector must be left to the best educationalists and political parties as well as government must not interfere in it.

Yours is a very balanced view , it also goes to show how intolerant some people have become so much so that anything connected to a minority issue is blown out of proportion , twisted around and a different meaning is given..

Here is not reason to oppose Sanskrit, Sanskrit in mother of all languages. Computer language is basically Sanskrit. Foreign languages also have words of Sanskrit.

Sanskrit is the mother of many language. We should be proud of the fact that Sanskrit was born in this country. It's also known as the Divine language.

It is my suggestion that from 6th to 12th class students must be learn one Indian language in each class. In 7 years 7 Indian language, Tamil, Telgu, Bangali, Marthi, Kannad,......

Of course, it's a good suggestion. The Educationists should look into the feasibility part. Especially the 7 years clause and the burden of fees that falls on the parents.

 

 

 

 

Urdu language is known by a very few people in our country. We should keep those languages which is understood by majority of people in our country.

Now it is the time that we should teach our students in Indian languages. Why we follow foreign languages? It will be more easy for our students if they learn in a language which they speak, which they understand. In most of our families local languages are spoken. So our primary education should be in either Hindi or state's local language. I found that it is difficult for most of the students to learn in English than our own local languages. We should respect our languages then others will respect us.

True. Languages are meant for communication and exchanging the thoughts. I prefer education in the early education should be in the State's language. In my case it is Telugu.

From middle school on wards there should be an option between Local language /English/ Sanskrit. Out of these it is essential for the student to choose any two languages out of the three.' In the college one can go for English medium education or Telugu medium depending on the student's future plans.

 

In fact URDU is no language but a dialect of Hindustani written in Persian script which is only promoting Arabian culture in India. Why can't the people write Urdu in their regional languages. People suggest writing Hindi in Roman script, the language having the potential of becoming the best computer language in the world, but when it comes to URDU (which is not even a language) it should be written in Persian. What a joke! Whom are we trying to appease?

 

 

I think it is incorrect to give a political angle to any change that happens in the country. The Hindi which we speak has a lot of Urdu words. So obviously it can not be totally removed from Text books. I'm sure such lessons can not be removed in UP where the language is spoken by many.Urdu is an Indian language and Modi himself uses them in plenty in his poems. Many a times the text books undergo changes for the betterment. Why should an issue be made out of it ? So far as having only Hindi or state local language in the primary level is concerned, in my opinion, it is not a good idea. With globalization, our next generation need to be at par with their counterparts from other countries. So they need to know the foreign languages as well and starting early makes the base strong.

In the present scenario of erasing the borders and the entire world is treated as a Global village, it is highly essential to learn English which is considered as Universal language .

In tune with this, in my state, English is made mandatory during High school education on wards. Of course it depends on the student's ultimate aims.

 Those who  do not aspire for foreign education and wish to continue in India will go for either Sanskrit or Telugu. This is what our education system in AP for the last few decades.

 

I refuse to buy that Sanskrit is 'deva vasa' as its vast literature contains atheistic,agnostic and even pornographic contents.Similarly its Indianness is also open to debate as the Aryans who are claimed to have owned it,originated from Central Asia.In fact Horoppa and Mahenjadoro civilizations which predates Aryans some 5000 years back continue to remain the mysterious link.It is not yet known which language they spoke.This flourishing civilization made an abrupt disappearance from the face of this planet!!

I favor writing all languages in Roman script. The Urdu stories in Rajasthan Textbooks were also in Devnagri script and not Persian. I have seen many invitation cards by Muslim in Deva Nagri script though language is Urdu.  I may reiterate here that Urdu and Hindi are similar. In our talk, it is not possible to say whether you are speaking in Urdu or Hindi. Personally, I favor writing Urdu in Devnagri script or Roman.

I am sure you know the fact that Muslims always prepare two sets of invitation cards in our area one for their Muslim friends and relatives In Persian and the other one for other communities in English or Hindi. It's the same as they prepare the menu for Muslims for marriage and other communities whom they invite for reception or Walima as the case is. I have been brought up in Lucknow and Allahabad so I can speak Urdu and have a liking for the language too. But when we link it with any religion or politicize it the problem begins.

In Karnataka, students learn Kannada the state language as second language when English is the medium of education.They also learn Hindi as third language until 10th standard. I guess this happens in all the southern states..

It is not possible to learn 7 language in one year. These languages study as 3rd language. so it will have not any extra financial burden on parents. Study of different language of our nation also promote special character of India "Unity in Diversity"

Agreed. Your explanation clarified my doubts. Learning according to 3 language formula will not add any extra burden.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Urdu is supposed to have originated in the Mughal armies as a mixture of Hindi and Persian. Persiam and Arabian are very different from each other. It is natural for the new government whose ideology is different from that of the previous one to further its beliefs as was done by earlier governments. We should not ascribe negative  motives to justify the changes.
