Horrible public schools of Maharashtra

Here is an article about the state of public schools in Maharashtra.



As I had indicated in an earlier blog, kids studying in public schools in Maharashtra are condemned to a life of misery. How about shutting down these schools and providing education vouchers for studying in private or semi-private well run schools for these kids?

Ofcourse, that will bring down quality of the private schools(similar thing observed in the US). Or the private schools will start running away to places that are hard to travel to. But atleast the Maharashtrian kid will have a chance.

Yes, we need people with different levels of education in the workforce, but these kids are condemned to low self esteem, dropping out and a life of mediocrity. Believe me, these kids are smart. But they have no chance in life coming out of these miserable schools.
