Sir,
This has reference to the UDAAN Scheme launched by the Government of India for providing training to J&K youth.

Sir,
India is one of the biggest democracies of the world. Elections take place after every five years of the Parliament as usual but in some extra ordinary cases election are held before the stipulated term. So far as states are concerned election are on in five states. The various political parties have begun their exercise by holding big rallies and giving expression to their party manifestos in five states.
Ours is a multiple party system and every party has the full freedom to attract the electorate, to their party fold. For doing this they go to any extent and leave no stone unturned to malign the opposite party which I think is quite opposite to the democratic way of ... |

| | Make better education | | |
Sir,
Day in and day out write ups, personal views and editorials appear in the news papers about the importance of moral values and too much emphasis is laid on the introduction of moral education as a subject at school, college and university level. But it may be said that mere introduction of moral education is not going to solve the problem. The school curriculum is already full of varied subjects. Further adition will prove a burden. I think the most vibrant and emphatic part of moral education is that of parents in general and that of a mother in particular. The first four or five years of a child, known as impressionable years spent in the proximity of parents are the most ... |
