Children are the future citizens of our country. But the biggest question which now arises is that what is in store for them? How will their future be?
When a cup of tea costs 2 rupees (minimum in a tea shop near the road side) the government has allotted 300 rupees as a monthly salary for a degree holder under the new act and that the person should not have worked for the past 5 years. Leave aside the formalities and the corruption that goes with it. This situation is worse if a person has not completed his degree (Rs.150 for a 10th standard student and 200 Rs if completed 12th). Will this satisfy the basic needs of a person? When I asked a person whom I meet at the employment exchange (saw him standing from 6 in the morning till noon), he said with much of a frustration “sir I am not able to take this further”. It costs me about 10 Rs, each time I come here. How will this 300 be enough for me to live?
When the government is taking so many steps to give employment to our youth, why is there so much of a restlessness among the today’s youth. This problem, however may not be in light because it is the candidates only from the private colleges that are been employed on an average in good reputed firms. Even they, many of them have not been able to get into the best companies. Why is this happening to us and our children while we claim that we live in a land of opportunities?
The main reason for this is the non proper functioning of our government colleges. No proper facilities in many of the colleges. Moreover now a days these government colleges have been coined as “a set of useless rags” (sorry to use such harsh words) by many MNC companies and even our own Indian firms. People mostly belonging to the low income category level only opt for this option. This was not the case when we look back 15years down the lane when there were only government college, hardly were there any private college at that time and people used to compete to get into these colleges.
We do have the potentials and the resources in our country, in fact the best in the world. But the saddest part is that no one realize‘s the fact that we have these resources. Its time for us to wake up to the fact that we are missing something great and big if we don’t start using these opportunities. I hope the government takes necessary steps in providing good, state of the art facilities in our government colleges and by reducing the fees structure in the private colleges.
