24. Standardisation of Education in India Several Questions • Are we really educated? • Country is rich in tradition, crafts and arts. The exploitation of rich values needs a thorough overhauling of the system. Old value systems in India has been modified. At present it is facing transition. Young generation tries to copy western culture. However, they are not a dole drum between Indian and western situations.

25. Standardisation of Education in India • Making education high utilitarian • This needs a high provoken and support from society. • The capability of research in our country is extremely high. Financial support is appreciable. Slight management standard of educational system may improve education as well as research for which the Federal Government is serious and sincere to achieve in given time.
