We The People: Quality Education - Free Or For A Fee?
Vložit

- This week Supreme Court upheld the Delhi High Court verdict that made it mandatory for private unaided schools, built on Delhi Development Authority land, to seek permission of the Delhi Government before hiking tuition fees. The AAP
government has hailed this decision as historic and warned schools of strict action if they don't comply. On We The People, we ask: can the fee regulation solve the demand-supply gap? Will micromanaging school fees disincentivise
educational entrepreneurs? While Right to Education is a fundamental right, in reality, India offers education of acceptable quality only to those who can pay for it. Multiple studies have highlighted miserable quality of education in our
government schools. One in six teaching positions in government schools are vacant. So are private schools the answer? On the other hand, have private schools made education a business where the focus is only on profit books? We debate.

Thank you AAP, without your efforts it would not be possible....salute...
Frankly, even money cannot buy quality education, sadly. So there is atleast some equality among inequality. Well, I agree, that govt schools are in a really bad shape. Some good work happening in Delhi, though, thanks to AAP.
in pune district all private schools making business , fees starting 65000 to 150000 rs per yr,
even actually school working days is 200 days , and we pay full 365 days fee to private profit earning schools , worth education in india only reach people can afford these fees
This type of debates should be on news channels. You are doing great job
In developed countries like US > 90% of kids study in the state run schools which are free and provide good education. Unlike in India where "most" govt schools are badly run, teachers though paid much better than in pvt schools do not turn up or are disinterested. Exceptions are there of course such as KVs which were created for the children of central govt employees, Sainik/Army schools for armed forces and Sanskriti for kids of IAS officers and few other govt schools. As a result even the poorest of the poor would not like to send their kids to govt schools where they know kids will not learn anything.
In this background Congress and their NAC advisors framed the RTE law that puts the burden of providing "free" education to all children on privately run Hindu owned schools (yes, minority run schools have been kept out of the ambit of this discriminatory law). Under RTE 25% of pvt aided or unaided schools have to set aside 25% of their seats for economically weaker sections of society for which the govt will reimburse the fees (among other provisions). RTE is not applicable to minority institutions even if govt aided, govt schools and boarding schools such as Doon school. Practically what is happening is that govt being govt does not reimburse RTE dues to schools on time (in Maharashtra RTE dues were not paid to schools for 4 years, similar situation in Tamizh Nadu), fee controls means the school is unable to pass the burden to paying customers. As a result of this `license raj` many pvt Hindu schools are closing down across the country unable to bear the burden of unpaid dues of RTE.
If a purely capitalist society like USA can provide free and fair education to their children why cannot India, a professedly socialist nation do similarly ? The solution to our education woes is not forcing private sector to provide facilities that government should as a rule.
I was eagerly waiting for this debate after seeing the post of Anand Sir on Facebook 1 hour ago
AAP is great work in education
I think there are two reasons:
1. All schools are supposed to be non-profit, so they are sitting on surplus funds that they can't divert to other business. So they are just increasing their expenses (by paying teachers more etc.) in the process of competing with each other to retain talent.
2. Government schools are so bad, that their demand has increased too much. Should have charter schools instead to bridge the gap.
All education is a right and should be free . Higher education should be subsidised by the Govt. In India, private schools are nothing but a money making excercise in exploitation of parents.
looks like NDTV is pissed of by AAP action against rogue pvt schools.
Exactly. The anchor/producer clearly had a pre - bias, which shouldnt be, when you are a reporter
But the Aam admi party actually is doing its part but public in general is pretty much fucked
Neeraj Batra * public in general
Why they don't clap when sir anand kumar is introduced?
Thank you Sara Jacob for the progressive debate instead of nonsense politics of India.
By the way credit goes to AatishiAAP for bringing the topic of educational reform in the mainstream.
full length video?
I think Anand sir and Gauhar raza raised a great point
Education in China is a state-run system of public education run by the Ministry of Education. All citizens must attend school for at least nine years, known as the nine-year compulsory education, which the government funds. It includes six years of primary education, starting at age six or seven, and three years of junior secondary education (middle school) for ages 12 to 15. Education in India is business like running a mall or a shop.
AFLION KING China is communist. India isn't.
Education is biggest deprivation of the poor and marginalized class today aided and abetted by ruling class in collusion with their rich cronies for mutual benefit. How would the poor ever come out of poverty if the poor kids are deprived of a basic and decent primary education. Earlier at least they had a chance to go to a gov school and socialize with other kids from more privileged background therefore not feel excluded and inferior on the basis of caste,class and status. One can not but feel deeply disheartened for the kids forced go to gov schools ,which are hardly functional, due to the lack of qualified teachers , Most of the teachers on the staff are not even professionally trained to take classes. The odds for a poor child to fulfill his or her potential is almost impossible to beat today and it is foisted by the broken system of education . People on the panel endorsing private education are representing vested interests . The anchors perspective to education reflects her elitist bias. Kudos to Mr anand for showing the way to the fake experts.

I suggest it's time to have more govt schools to give tough competition to the private and every state should follow the Delhi style
Anchor was clearly biased towards Heritage school principal. She was so over-awed by her and almost obeisant. What has gone wrong with NDTV or this anchor, schools are minting money at the cost of lame average people of the country. This debate should not have happened, its such a simple thing to agree with and support, what AAP govt is doing in Delhi
I think education should be free with quality measure. This days we are talking about corruption is the big barrier in developing nation and individual. What is the root cause that quality education with cost. If we invest more why not expect to get return more. If not happen corruption start...
Interest Ke Saath Paisa Wapas Karna Hoga Private School Ko, Warna Jail Me Jagah Bahut Hogi Unke Liye....!!!!
This type of debet has been newer seen in any chanal
Investment in the education sector is productive, but no one realising the fact, with best faculty we can get best human capital, if we add required infrastructure then miracles,till now teacher student ratio 1:100 ,now also students walking 5 km to go to school
Yes in mumbai also all private schools charge so much that middle class people can't afford
subjects ko education system ko update karo britissh made syllabus ko badlo smart device use kArwana shuru karwao gdp se 10 percent spend karo education pe
The facilities of government schools should be improved. most of the government schools are not even have enough bathroom facilities. if the requirements are fulfilled in the government school ,why the people think to spend more money
Because govt schools are deliberately deprived of due corrupt babus-corrupt politicians - corrupt industry malpractices
Good going AAP. You are making people to discuss right topics.
Till now students are walking 5 km to go to school, till now teacher student ratio 1:100
Very good work
4 years later, Atul Wassan sounds like an arrogant, uneducated person. AAP has shown in Delhi that all that is required is political will.
Great contribution NDTV
True....!!!! Education System Will Be Free In Future....!!!! How Will Do, We Have To See, And Strict Punishment Will Be Taken For All Private Schools, And They Will Have To Give Back All Money Which They Have Collected Till Now....!!!! Wo Bhi Thag Ke Gareeb Janta ko....!!!!
⚫I can't understand english,,,,
⚫ Lyric ke sath video bana sakte ho kya?
Convent schools stop morning JEJUS prayers
Atul wasaan failed as a cricketer...failed as logical thinker....
looking down at the number Convent schools opening up in Delhi, it was to be expected by AAP. Take down the Private schools & help Church give a free hand in Delhi. Naxal+ Missionary nexus.
