India - The Road Ahead


I was reading an article,which inspired to put my impressions on the same lines. When everyone is looking as to what the future hold. The past tell you how your present and future would be. The year 2006 had a lot in hold for us. 2006 in a lot of ways was very India centric be it growth, culture or geopolitically. Foremost being US recognizing India as a major N-power. Efforts in other areas of development!ISRO announcing its intent for Mars mission is testimony of the distance it has rocketed since its inception. Global Indian acquisition can be termed as the highlight in corporate world! L N Mittal stands so does others in IT, Steel, Electronic firms standout for their hunt! Young & dynamic Kiran Desai wrote her way to booker prize. Moment to relish for Indian’s! India to flourish like this in the years to come, my humble suggestion is to have an economy that is educated, educated in the true sense of the word. All these achievements and achievers owe their success to their education. Lets all take a resolution to mentor one uneducated child, we would go a long way. This to many would be a dream but I am reminded of Sunita William's famous statement "If you believe in your dream it will come true" caught the imagination of millions of Indian youth. She will remain a living testimony of courage and perseverance. Let take a resolution to work for a greater India and educated India!

it is very evident that this country is growing and we are competing globally and i strongly believe education is a backbone for growth and to sustain it in longterm.......though our literacy rate is growing it is not comparable with any metrics whatsoever it is......education will help people not only to improve their economic standards but can also help in resolving a lot of social issues that arises due to illetracy.........I pledge to you my friend that I will do the best I can to get adpot one child to get him/her educated......I would be happy to join hands with you if you are looking for a co-ordinated effort.......

I always believe in giving something to the society that has given you this much........

Humble, yet thought provoking message.Something that i've alwayz insisted while ive arguments about India-EDUCATION. A must not only for self or socio-economic developments ,but more importantly to view social issues with a different perspective and not with a narrow minded approach...
By EDUCATION here i mean education of minds....not mere bookish thoughts..This comes only after after constant introspection and an innate ability to look beyond wat one sees or hears...
cheers,Sindhu:-)
