pressure cooker.



Hello my dear patient,some angry some happy readers..here im back after my unintentional,unpredictable long sabbatical from blogging.

and as they say the wise speak only when there something impotant to be said...mindlessblabbering is not hard to find lolzz
(i knw khud ki bahut taarif kar li but ppl i need to marketise my blog u see.i hav to instill in my readers that whatever follows in the blog
is worth their time...hmmm however their perception after reading might change lolzz ..)so enough of my marketing strategy
coming downt to the blog itself to cater to your intellectual appetite




last month was really a busy 1 what with the annual sports and cultural festivities..in all that running around i didnt have time to contemplate
things around me ..was just njoyng the last and best fest of my life with people who really matter to me..
but after all the superb things my life has again selled into the less interesting part of college lyf last minute assignments and
'mukhdarshan' of teachers i dint knw existed lolzz!!!
in all these routine mundane stuff something that brought me out of it was the aptiude test of my 1o year old cousin.its a reality people
they have a aptitude test for kids as small as him an even younger.

so here is a boy all of 10 preparing for an aptitude test days after his final xams..to add to absurdity of it all the portion
the same is the class he is giving aptitude for ie portion of 5th std while this kid is in 4th
he goes gives the test comes out with stoies of new toys,the shiny pencilbox a kid sitting next to him had..and the paper
haan likha hai maine was the answer



on the day of results as expected almost 98% of the total kids who gavve the test were listed as eneligible..there was an air of
sadness,frustrations and broken expectations about the hopefull parents of those kids..my cousin and his parents were among
such parents..

my cousin cried because he could not understand why and hows of it all..who could xplain to the poor
child that just the need to learn is not considered enough...these school authorities will bend and break all rules
to suit themselves let the new rules of education be damned.we will not allow education to be available to all
,though we make hell lot of money via donations and unexplained fees hikes with each passing semester,we will not make more classroom
we will keep such things like entrance to eliminate the kids and will give admissions only to those who is profitable to the institution
either in terms of higly intelligent or the very rich the in betweeners be damned..


what these authorities forget that however high and expensive their walls are ppl will rise from unexpected areas.
history is spilled with names of ppl who made a mark withourt ever getting proper education
einstein is a classic example..so i tell my cousin ..

now coming to a close of this long blog i recommend all u ppl out der do hear the pink floyyd no-another
brick in the wall to get my point straight.. ciao till the next blog.
