I would like to talk about some people or groups who are carrying on the work in education quietly.One such organisation is Oxygen a students' movement.It has a branch in Delhi and Ranchi. I was introduced to them by default.
However, i am really glad to have been there and i consider myself an integral part of this movement. Their door is wide open for anyone to walk in and breathe the air on education.I agree with the motto which they propagate," Let's make education the biggest issue."
That's my sentiment. Bingo. The debates which the young people conduct themselves are an eye opener. There is a lot to learn for it reflects the true situation of the urban student. For the movement is a little restricted to the students in the city.
Patna is a strange mix of traditional values and modernity. Mostly, there is a latent cynicism in the air. So oxygen seemed like a little oasis in the midst of all this darkness. I have a lot to learn from them , including typing in Hindi.
Isn't that liberating? There is no end to training and if i feel a sense of relief that i too can catch up, surely it will benefit the youth so much more.For those of you who are interested the news letter is available on their website:
