POVERTY RANKLES

The three key challenges that rankle me are poverty, safety of women and inadequate educational facilities. With our population increasing at the rate of 1.7 % per annum, there is a huge pressure on our natural resources. Besides being unsafe in public places, women also face discrimination at their place of work. The standard of education is falling. No wonder our universities seldom figure among the premier varsities of the world. Fix the education system to fix India. Tanveer Kaur, Patiala
