Many believe that India, with its high gross domestic product, can now nurture hopes of becoming a superpower. Whether or not one shares the yearning to be a super-power, the country should almost certainly have to have a knowledge-rich economy, if not a knowledgedriven one. And the education system has much to do with generating knowledge and nurturing the talent that produces and utilizes this knowledge. Let us therefore take a look at our education system, and the comments by thinkers elsewhere on education in general.

Abstract


Many believe that India, with its high gross domestic product, can now nurture hopes of becoming a superpower. Whether or not one shares the yearning to be a super-power, the country should almost certainly have to have a knowledge-rich economy, if not a knowledgedriven one. And the education system has much to do with generating knowledge and nurturing the talent that produces and utilizes this knowledge. Let us therefore take a look at our education system, and the comments by thinkers elsewhere on education in general.
