Hello everyone my name is Harsh.
First of all I would like to thank you all for giving me opportunity to express my opinion on front of you.
I think that privation of schools is not at all a good step. I agree that the quality increases but it keeps India's future at stake. It means only those who can afford so high amount of fees can only have a secured future.
What about others? Aren't they the part of this country. Why can't they have a good future? We proudly say that India is a democratic country but what we forget is that EQUALITY is a main factor of democracy. Is this equality?
Also if we go to the history. Great kings used to go deep in the forests in GURUKULS to attain education and what facilities where there? they had to do all the works. Which also made them independent.
My point is if government makes some strong efforts then they could give higher quality education too. And India would be a "Private Schools Eradicated country".
But this can happen only if we the. The youth the future generation of India join our hands together and fight for this.
This was all I had to say thank you for listening me so patiently and thank you for giving me your precious time.
Thank you once Again.

Hi there! If we talk about ideal things then privatization in higher education will really create problems for those who belongs to poor background. But if we look at ground reality of education system in the India. It is not good. Education ratio is less compare to other countries. Somewhere government has failed to provide good and sufficient education, so privatization had born in the field of education and became a business. Although they are providing quality of education but only some students can able to afford their fees. Privatization is also creating jobs. Privatization is good until government has some control over it. Government must apply some rules in sake of poor students. They should apply some reservation system for poor students in fees.

The Government should take over- say NO to privatization, if using only money to buy politicians (Horse Trading) is illegal, so should be the compromise for merit versus money in private colleges- where you buy a degree you may not deserve by paying money.
It also churns out poor quality and false value systems. Like even, if I am not deserving, I get a job in MNC, gloat about myself etc. These colleges falsely rationalize poor quality.
Consider this- IPS/PPS or local police inspector all can become SSP- but they get promoted at different speeds. But Due to privatization of engineering- there being no way to measure or delineate- you will find them getting into senior positions that they don't deserve. This amounts to cheating the system/society.

I think privation of education is very dangerous for Indian because in India they are many poor people they can't effort the fees of private school and college then the result of privatisation is many poor child remain uneducated and in this way the development and growth of India is decreased so government is very important for education. And private school and college is only focus on fees. When they going in loss they. Closed their school and COLLEGE so in private school and college student. Bear the main loss.

Fist of all I want to thank all of you to giving me this opportunity to share my feelings and emotions on this topic.
According to my perspective, as we all know, education is a must for the development of every country as without education there are no chances of development, so in this respect education is main weapon to improve and eradicate any evils.
Now, I come to the main topic, according to my point of view, as We all know, everything has negative as well as positive factors, so in this way the privation of higher education is good and bad to some extent. Considering all the above points which have been given by my fellow and after reading the above points, I have come to the following points are as under:
Advantage of privation of education in private sectors:
1. Student can't get a better quality education as the teachers in private school, colleges and universities pay much attention towards to students.
2. Student can't do their every work with great management related to their schools work or their personal work joint with their personal life because the private schools pay much attention towards management and discipline as the management and discipline have the major role for every kind of work.
3. They get a better atmosphere with good students.
Disadvantages of privatization of education in private sector:
1. The Private institutions demand for high amount of fees which is not possible for every people as a developing counter like India most of the people are poor so they can not afford so much amount of fees.
2. Money is given prime importance.
Disadvantages of high education in the hands of Government Sectors:
1. In most of the Government Schools, the teachers don't pay much attention towards to students.
2. Because they are interested in their's monthly income and not interested to educate the students.
2. There is no management and discipline and even good atmosphere.
Advantages of privatization of education in government sectors:
1. Because the institution fees are low to some extent, and most the students can approach the institutions in government sector.
2. No doubt, Many of the best government institutes such as IITs, IIMs and NIT.
At last, I would like to say one thing, merit basis admission should be preferred instead of donations.
Thank you, very much to share my feelings.

Hai I am Eswar. In my view our education system should not be privatized. This is because Private institutes are really squeezing the blood of poor people. If and only if our education system is governed our literates rate never increase. Because we may not find as much of stuff in rich people but we can find in poor. If we provide an opportunity to prove themselves the poor really grow very high.

In my view privatization is important, only when it come along with govt. help.
The privatization is best way if:
* The government gives 50% seats to poor students.
* The college gives some free seats to distinction students.
* The govt. Provides seats as well as more fund to minor students and backward students.
* The college gives free seats to all students and take the over all fund by govt.

Friends, making whole education system private is not the end result rather reinforcing the loopholes in government education. Though government education helps us to how to stand like a kid but when the times comes to walk the government system pull its hands back to support. Here in this situation we have population explosion according to which most of student seeks higher education but government Has limited colleges reserved for categories. Therefore privatization in education should come only for a particular duration and it should also link the government Institutions so all of sudden every student then can get a chance to grow smoothly.

Welcome everybody. I feel glad being the part of this group discussion. As we all know this is time of capitalism. Every person who has money can get good education along with good grades. If we talk about boards, there are state or central boards. As we all know the most of private schools are affiliated from central board and this is very easy to pass and take good grade. For poor and rich people government education is more comfortable. Private education is comfortable for rich but not for poor.
Generally there are more intelligent people among poor. According to me education system should not be privatized whether it be primary level or higher level. Because if system is gone in private hand then the private body treat it like a business and what will happen when the business suffer the loss they will shut down their business means close the college or school whatever the condition. In that case only student suffer. Another reason is that every one can not afford the expenditure if the system become privatized. So in that case actual talent may not be emerged.

Hello my name is Abha and after listen to all of you I want to say that if we want to make our education system better it is not necessary that we privatised our education system completely but both government and private institution can collaborate to provide better system. We all know that private education institution demand very high fees from children which poor families cannot afford and till India share only 6% of student went to college for higher education and steps like this of privatisation of education may reduce this percentage.
