Lucknow: The students of Krishna College, Bijnor met State Governor Anandiben Patel at Raj Bhavan and got the experience of enlightening discussions.

In order to solve the queries of the students, the Governor emphasized on not linking education with employment and giving priority to self-reliance. She said that merit does not seek job. Qualified and skilled people become self-sufficient by doing their own work. She described the initial knowledge and proper nutrition received from the family as essential in the overall development of the child. She said that the habit of performing work with right manners, respect for workplace and dedication towards responsibilities is inculcated in the family from childhood itself.
In the same sequence, she also said that it is necessary to add the education of Garbhadhan Sanskar in the universities and said that the child starts learning from the mother’s womb itself, so it is necessary to know how the mother and the family should behave during pregnancy.
Discussing the practical knowledge of the students, the Governor encouraged the students who came during the meeting to participate in maximum activities outside the academic campus. She said that work done and participation in addition to school education increases practical knowledge. Discussing the stress-free student life, the Governor said that it is necessary for children to get education by choosing subjects according to their interest. In this sequence, she told that in the National Education Policy-2020, a system has been made to select the subject according to the interest of the students.
