Sharing his insights with News18 India viewers, Hon’ble Education Minister, Shri. Dharmendra Pradhan said, “We are working proactively to reduce stress for our students. Our commitment has always been to create a conducive learning environment, which can help students achieve their highest potential. Through holistic skill-based training and integrated vocational guidance, we are empowering India’s youth to become self-reliant and attain gainful employment. Moving forward we are promoting primary education for children in their native languages. We are encouraging various national languages from Hindi to English and from Tamil to Manipuri. Additionally, we are rolling out various initiatives to encourage and empower more girls to enroll in schools and complete their secondary education. Our aim has always been to provide an inclusive and holistic education for one and all across the nation”.
He further added, “It is time that India thinks bigger. We need to have a comprehensive vision for our education model for the next 25 years. Education is a sector that should not be interwoven with interparty politics. As Indians, our endeavour should be always to spread our education outreach to the grassroot level. As we prepare the next generation of entrepreneurs in our country, we will create incubation agencies to bolster innovation and technology-based growth in the perceivable future”.
