Bro you did not pay attention to my previous posts. I said ... all what you've mentioned are important and are required. But education reforms are the most important and we need them now. Why?
Let's assume we make all necessary changes you mentioned plus reform in power and infra sector and India become a manufacturing hub (5~10 years) with lot of companies investing in various sectors.
Then we'll need people with skills and quality education. Where shall we get them if we do not start education reforms now?
Because education reforms will take comparably longer time to show it's result and “NOW” is the time to start reforms in this sector.
I agree. But unless we have those reforms i mentioned and those in power and infra, we will not need those additional skills and quality in the same numbers. Right now the situation is such that job creation is very low in India and is reaching crisis proportions - unemployement leads to massive social problems.
That is to say, the Government of India has a fixed amount of political capital. The opposition like all oppositions is born to oppose anything GoI says and wants (like BJP also did when in opposition). If that fixed political capital is spent on labour and tax reforms, the returns will be greater as compared to spending that political capital on education reforms.
Though after the labour and tax reforms are done, then I would like GoI to take up education reforms as well. I dont mean for GoI to keep waiting
until we already become a factory to the world and
then think about education reforms.
Plus you have to understand we already have a cushion in terms of talent lying unused. The sheer number of engineers and managers wasting their lives in menial jobs because they could not find good jobs is mind-boggling.
Though their quality may be poor, they can be retrained on the job. This is what happened in China as well. Their HR was poor but incrementally got better with companies when they came to China and started factories ...started teaching them as well. This is exactly what happened in our much vaunted IT industry as well - the engineers are trained for a little while after getting recruited from campuses by the Companies themselves.
So you see why I said, the need of the hour of GST and Labour reforms, nothing else.
I am already pissed with BJP and Congress for focusing away from these issues and onto trash like love jihad, conversions and secularism.
U are simply uninformed i guess.
Too bad.
No sir, you have very wrong priorities. And are not aware of data either to back your assertions.
