On the fiasco of unfair practices used in exams

Note touba or khongbaan chenba are not unfamiliar terms to any (lairik paaningdaba) Manipuri student who has studied in any of the schools or colleges in Manipur. A major threat to quality education from a larger perspective, the practice of using unfair means during exam keeps on looming around for all these decades. In today’s technologically empowered world it is quite a matter of shame that students still indulge in such a practice. There is no short cut to success, passing exams through unfair means is not something to be proud of-but only if they understand it!

Holy month, unholy blasts

Ramadan is a holy month for Islam which we all must respect. More so when it’s observed with the rigorous austerity, renouncing the material indulgences, dedicating this to the Almighty who is “common” to all and one. True, always through the “austerity” one’s mind, inner heart and soul can be cleansed that finally raises one’s spiritual level. Of course, throughout the holy month, those who fast should not at all be hurtful to anyone, even the non-human creatures whether through the speech or action. Also, the “mind” must not harbour anything that precipitates the negativity.

Education is one of the oldest subjects being imparted in Assam. It is one of the common subjects for the student studying in arts stream after secondary level. The subject can be taken as a major subject in graduation and post graduation can be done in education. We should not get confused regarding BA or MA in Education and B Ed or M Ed. These are different courses which are part of the same department in most of the university.
