Providing quality primary education can help to catapult our nation as whole entity to the top leagues given the favourable demography captured vividly through the survey and presented with clarity in the article "Is there a Solution(for our educational maladies)?"
The issues which need to be addressed vary from the existing multifarious presence of castes, their local social interactions to attract investment and talent for providing the educational service and finally to achieve that the funds reach the targeted. This will bring in the much needed private sector investment to expedite improvements.
One of the possible solutions is the use of "Education Vouchers".
Our educational systems are stretched and as Prof Indiresan has argued(here as well as in his columns in Vision 2020), brilliant students need to be identified and taught by brilliant teachers. In the crucible of Education institutions one needs to have a balance of brilliant students and teachers to sustain the reaction. Targeted funding will act as the catalyst which will accelarate the process.
It is incumbent on the powers that be to focus on the "solutions which are staring at us" and decide to implement.
