“Education is an instrument to enlighten to unearthing of our ignorance”
The objective of the education is to prepare ourselves to revive and train personally for the rest of our lives.Education is essential for all of us and none can deny it. It is worthwhile to remember education never ends but grows and helps one to grow. It is a wrong notion in the minds of many, that education means passing out an examination and possessing a degree like a piece of paper. It is rather the training of the mind to think and analyse. It should endeavour one to become a cultured person, who can distinguish the right from wrong, good from evil, truth from falsehood and Godliness from Ungodliness.
As such, the aim of education should be to teach us how to think rather than what to think.It is unambiguous that education is for, developing our all our latent abilities. In eachof us, there is a private hope, vision and dream which, when realized and translated into action benefit the society around and the Nation as a whole. The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of realization of their dreams.
