A homework for the education minister

The government’s failure to include the issue of caste discrimination in textbooks is deeply problematic.

UNICEF and other international organisations, including our statutes, claim that education is a basic human right. To achieve that goal, we need to re-examine our school education critically. There’s a need to make quality education available to all students, irrespective of their class, and to revamp and modernise our teaching and learning methods for the progress and prosperity of our country.
