Every city should have an education city annexed to it. And all the education institutions should be ask to develop an respectable school. These gali mohalla schools should be disallowed and education city should be promoted. These bungalow schools are inculcating a law defying culture among rich class. It may look a very small or irrelevant example, but these practices cause indoctrination. If you observe, traffic violations create commotion at the time of school start and pack up. Drivers do double parking and indulge in fights if asked to clear the area. Now children see it and they see it daily. What would one expect when they grow up. Same? Isnt it?
