  • Self confidence, self reliance, self dedication and self realisation are the 4 components that should be imparted through education.
  • The rural and tribal people have to be taught the value of vote.

  • India is a rich country with pockets of poverty. It has three parts 1. The Rich 2. The Middle Class and 3. The Poor
  • There is a need to shift part 3rd of India to the 2nd India and a few from 2nd should shift to 1st India.
