Quote:G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant, "India growing at 8.3% plus in last three quarters and emerged as a resilient powerhouse in a world that starved for growth. We are an oasis of growth amid a very barren economic landscape across the globe". IMF:India would contribute 20% of the world's economic expansion in the next decade.He added "The Southern Region is currently the country's engine of growth and all States in the country have to grow at a fast pace to have $ 35 trillion economy by 2047. The world's economic trajectory was witnessing a "once-in-a generation shift", and to sustain growth, India had to aim at high growth rates of 9-10% for the next 30 years. For that changes are needed at the State level while a lot of efforts are happening at the Central level. He said that Japan, South Korea, China and Singapore sustained economic growth of 10% for a three decade period. Such economic growth is possible only if the countries fires on all cylinders and not just depend on services.This will also require higher output from manufacturing a s better productivity in the agriculture sector."

The Hon'ble SC said public spaces like parks, buses,metro cannot be allowed to become "zones of high risk" because of deficiencies such as "grossly inadequate illumination"  and "lax patrolling".Where basic measures of public safety remain compromised, no individual irrespective of age, gender or sexual identity, can navigate public spaces with a sense of security.

रहिमन बिद्या बुद्धि नहिं, नहीं धरम, जस, दान। भू पर जनम वृथा धरै, पसु बिनु पूँछ बिषान॥ The above doha is of Rahim. Those who didn't use their mind and those who didn't acquire knowledge,those who didn't perform their duties, those who didn't get name and fame,the birth of such persons on the planet is useless and they are a burden on the Earth.The difference between a person without education and animal is just of a tail. Bottom line: Education helps a person to deal with ethical dilemmas, distinguish 'right' and 'wrong' ,understand his/her duties and performance of duties diligently leads to name and fame.So to contribute meaningfully to the society, education is hence,a sine qua non. Education improves the quality of life. Such an idea can be read into Article 21 which has enunciated the  Right to life and liberty. Right to life is not just about 'animal existence' but a 'meaningful life','life with dignity' and to realise it education is one of the most potent weapon. The government should improve the standard of education and must ensure its availability for all.
