Brahmananda Kumar,

You are so right when you say Government should publish the story or dedicate a chapter in history to great heroes like Field Marshall Manekshaw. Never will India have a great leader like the ones like him. How can you expect this from our government when the text books are written by College professors and not teachers who teach the specific classes and when you have education ministers who do not how to spell the word education or know the meaning of it? God help our future generations with the class of education that is being imparted these days everyone from the parents to the ministers are only interested in the percentage scored, but not in the values of being a good human being its a pity that children are forced to secure 90 and above %age and then forget what they have learnt the following year. The past generations still remember what they were taught in their nursery and KG classes. GOD HELP OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS WITH THE KIND OF EDUCATION THEY ARE RECEIVING TODAY.
