Education
 

“I have received education and am reaping the benefits now. However, for higher education one would have to go outside the state so I would like it if some good centers of learning were established here so that my daughters would not have to face the problems that I did. With the help of education we can not only make our career and future bright but can also guide the new generation. Education is generating employment and revenue in this region and entrepreneurs are emerging in some sectors. It is also creating a sense of responsibility among the masses.

Personally I would like to say that it is true that there are good institutions providing education but some responsibility also lies on the shoulders of the parents. The present generation is going the wrong way because of the lack of guidance and counseling from their parents.”
