Anxiety, tension, maladjustment, drugs, heart diseases, mental ailments, cancer and aids we have them all. We are snowed under hate, aggression, racism and communalism. Nuclear weapons, genocide, imperialism, terrorism and wars in the name of religion and nature's backlash threaten to engulf our planet. Are we going to survive or vanish like many lost species?
If we are indeed to survive and solve the problems that beset us we need to pay special attention to education of generation now and generations next. The future generations have to be sensitized, empowered, and strengthened. It is education that can help people to understand the problems at hand, analyze, synergize and find solutions. It is knowledge that can empower people to think independently.
