the speakers wanted the government to bring uniformity in the education and introduce Common School System. There was highest dropout rate among the poor students and they were unable to attend school regularly due to financial problems.
Participants also emphasised the need for an education system that should inculcate moral values and ethics among the students.Stating that the present generation lacks values, they wanted the Union
government to frame values and ethics based education curriculum. Moral values should be taught right from KG to University level, they observed.
