Our nation comprises a lot of institutes that not only stand up with eminence, but they also charge high fees. However parents do send their children in hope that such places would help enable a much better scope with possibility of success.
In recent times, the race to become the best has changed an entire course, as students are put into great pressure and the way they are going to get a job is hardly of any concern for these institutes now.
One such example comes in the form of the Kota factory that is well renowned for its standards. However facts are speaking differently if we look at the round figure. Around 20 lakhs students try for Neet and around 10 lakhs in JEE but the success rate is very low. ONly 0.7% of students are able to secure possible jobs and they are not going to get the perfect one.
However, in India such institutes also have their tie up to global places. Lot of interns get trial work sessions that are paid with countries like Germany or Russia which are not safe and such internships are limited for certain months in such places. This trial practice for a certain time and just with a single diploma and global appreciation is not going to get a job.
It certainly raises a huge pressure and also results in stress that can lead to serious effects. The current stage is that Kota factory is regularly facing suicides. There are a lot of reasons due to which this may happen, but lack of awareness of mental stress is the core one and it has to be fixed.
It is time the government sees it and tries to address it or it will be late. We don’t want such an issue to become a huge one so we need to act now. There are other technical places that are facing deaths in such a form, but Kota is renowned and this must be settled first.
We have to stand with those who are put into such pressure to take such a serious step and stop them from doing it.
Duty calls, time to save lives…
