1. CBSE is shifting to grading system instead of % of marks to reduce the pressure on students.Then this step is simply backtracking. 2. If H'ble minister finds % of marks important then why an entrance test and vice versa. 3.Again if it is...

It is better to keep 70% instead of 80% and the idea of Hrd Minsiter is to reduce the pressure given to students by those coaching centres. The HRD Minister has to fix only 70% cut -of
Sarika Singh  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
I don't think this 80% cut off mark should be made mandatory, there will be many reasons why a student wouldn't have fared well in the class 12 exams and whats wrong with 60% what matters is how good he or she is on the given day like when they...

Social entrepreneurship in India is making greater strides towards inclusiveness by involving every strata of society to tap into the momentum and growth of the country. However, in spite of several initiatives, social entrepreneurship eco-system in India is not coming together as well as it needs to.  Their focus and collaboration on solutions should be directed towards not merely one-off acts of charity, but adding up to a vast array of sustainable services across sectors and industries that help people at the base of the pyramid, which is not happening in the country now.  In the post-independent era, many enterprising men with social bent of mind had ventured into setting up educational institutions, which helped the country to move out of the chaotic state into a vibrant and democratic environment. But over the decades, these established institutions which laid the foundation for modern India, because of their sheer size, were forced to evolve into large business enterprises...

Do get me some water from the lake." The disciple walked up to the lake. At that moment, a bullock cart started crossing through the lake. As a result, the water became very muddy and turbid.The disciple thought, "How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to drink?" So he came back and told Buddha, "The water in there is very muddy. I don't think it is fit to drink." After about half an hour, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back to the lake. The disciple went back, and found that the water was still muddy. He returned and informed Buddha about the same. After sometime, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back. This time, the disciple found the mud had settled down, and the water was clean and clear. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to Buddha. Buddha looked at the water, and...
