The State of Haryana has made immense progress
since its inception and is at the crossroads of becoming a Destination State or
preferred place for launching entrepreneurship, In fact the very location of the
State in the geography of the country is a great advantage to the State which
has not been tapped to its fullest. In addition , the State has such riches, both,
in material and in human resources that it can very well develop into a haven
for prosperity and continual growth.
One
important barometer of the level of development of any community or country is
the level of awareness and knowledge that the people in that communioty or country
possess. This can be given a more tangible term that is Literacy Rate or in simpler
tterms, Level of eduction. This has been a gray area in Haryana, despite diligent
efforts from various quarters to improve and augment it. The State has a sizable
educational spread but somewhere the element of quality and improvement has been
missed out on. Much of it is due to lack of vision in planning the education sector
and then managing it rigorously, Mediocrity and lassitude have marred the reputation
of education sector. However, it being a welfare State, the onus to give a new
direction to this sector to the extent of completely participation from all the
stakeholders in this area - administrators, educationists, parents and students.
