Bhopal, 10 October (HS). Minister of State for Backward Classes and Minority Welfare (Independent Charge) Krishna Gaur said that the youth should become job providers instead of job seekers after getting educated. Minister of State Krishna Gaur was addressing the inauguration program of the skills exhibition organized under the STARS (Strengthening Teaching Learning and Results for States) project at PMShri Government Maharani Lakshmibai Girls Higher Secondary School, Barkheda on Thursday.
He said that before the new education policy, emphasis was only on reading. Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi gave a new education policy to the country and in the new education policy, along with theoretical knowledge of studies, vocational knowledge is also being given. In the new education policy, the focus has been on skill development of children. By acquiring practical and scientific knowledge along with studies, the new generation will move forward with self-confidence and become self-reliant. This generation will not be job seekers but will be job and employment providers.
Minister of State Krishna Gaur said that vocational courses have been started in schools. In this, children are being taught and educated keeping in mind the needs of the future along with fulfilling the needs of daily routine. These children will become self-reliant and the self-reliant young generation will contribute to building a self-reliant nation.
He said that the efforts being made to strengthen the teaching and learning outcomes of school education through the Storrs Project are commendable. He said that models and charts based on the skills learned by the students of vocational education-run district schools have been displayed in the exhibition. Models based on various daily use needs like rainfall, meteorology, agriculture, electricity, city planning, machinery, electric generation, electric transmission, computer hardware, computer software and many more have been presented in the exhibition. The models created by the students and their teachers are amazing. He said that I am satisfied after visiting the exhibition and the models displayed in this exhibition guarantee the success of the future scientific generation. These models have been selected after a competition organized in schools. I wish all the best to all the students and teachers who have prepared the models.
Minister of State Krishna Gaur said that along with modern knowledge and science, we also have to remain connected to traditional skills. He said that while discharging his responsibilities as Minister of the Department of Vimukt, Nomadic and Semi-Nomadic Castes, he got information about various skills associated with these castes. He said that work is being done to preserve and develop the traditional skills of these castes by linking them with modern knowledge. He said that we have to move forward by combining traditional skills with modern knowledge.
Councilor Neeraj Singh, Professor Malhotra, Joint Director Arvind Chorgade, NK Ahirwar and other officials also addressed the program. In the exhibition, 150 students from 28 schools of the district displayed models, charts and short plays.
