Education in Delhi Schools: Rhetoric vs. Reality Delhi-School-Education-Rep-June-2018 | Page 42

STREET PLAY – चमेल क पढ़ाई – ON SCHOOL EDUCATION
RMN Foundation is working extensively in the education sector, particularly to
improve the school education systems. As part of its ongoing education awareness
campaign in Delhi, RMN Foundation has started presenting a street play – चमेल क
पढ़ाई – which highlights the problems in the current education ecosystem.
The script of the street play – चमेल क पढ़ाई – reveals the following 12 facts of the
education system in Delhi.
1. Politicians of all political parties are telling lies about the quality of Delhi
school education which is - in fact - constantly deteriorating.
2. An unprecedented hype is being created around school education by the
current Delhi Government while the government has done nothing to save the
decaying education systems.
3. The focus of the current government is on school-related construction projects
such as swimming pools, rooms, etc. because construction work gives huge
opportunity to politicians and bureaucrats to swindle public money.
4. There is no attempt to revamp the syllabuses and books of students.
5. The quality of school teachers is so bad that they are not even trainable.
Government is wasting huge money on teachers’ training.
6. School teachers are promoting an illegal trade in the form of private tuitions.
7. Almost all school students even after completing their schooling remain
duffers who cannot be trained further to compete in the current job market.
8. Since school education is totally directionless, college education cannot make
students employable.
9. School of Open Learning (SOL) is a big deception which cannot provide
necessary education and skills to students. Only rejected students opt for
SOL.
10. Since parents are clueless about the education outcomes, they are being
cheated by politicians for electoral advantages.
11. After spending 12 years on school education, students realize that they have
wasted all that time of their life. At that stage, all the career avenues are
closed for them. They become drug addicts and commit crimes.
12. Parents are the worst enemies of their children who are accepting bad
education instead of demanding quality education from the government.
