▪️You all are thinking about why I am telling this to you guys that's because you just read some data related to the education system in this you can clearly see this crores rupees are spent in the education every year but can you tell me honestly that the money spent on the education is in crores but the education provided after spending this much money is good. 

▪️ I don't know about others but according to my experience it's not good enough. I will tell you all about my experience. I filled the form for masters admission but they took so long that I started feeling that if I don't take admission now, my year will be ruined, so I took admission in another college. In Government College, fees are deposited in advance and then admissions are informed. When I took admission in other college then after a month I got admission in that university but then I canceled the admission because I already taken admission. So they said they will return my fees after some kind of process. I said ok sir. But then I waited for months but whenever I called them no one picks up or if they pick the call then said always my account number are wrong but it is not possible because I checked more than 10 times And my account number were absolutely correct. After calling them so many times like after 11 months they said that your fees have been returned but not even a single penny has been returned to my account and after that no calls are being picked and they are not responding to messages and emails. Here I don't want to take universities full name but that University is really very famous among government universities.

One thing, I am not saying that what I experienced happens to everyone but because it happened to me it means that it must have happened to some people also. Every year lakhs of people in India give fees in advance to take admission. But can anyone tell me where my fees money is gone when it is not deposited in my account. Neither did they provide me the information in which account they deposited the money nor did they provide any other information. Forget the information, they didn't even consider it necessary to pick up the calls. That university is very far from my house, that's why I can't go there and ask about my fees but now I don't know what I should do. In the college in which I took admission, the teachers in that college did not come to classes and I was like, what is the use of spending money so far from home if I have to go to this type of college like this? There is no fee refund in that college, due to which my two college fees were wasted this year. Then I took admission in a local college in my city but is this right. Is it really good to forget about my money which my father earned with hard work.

This is one example but this would have happened with many other students also and they would not have even been told about their fees. 

Now days in college you just go for entrainment and bunking classes other then this you can just sit and use your phone.  When we were in younger classes, they used to say that you have to study all this in college. Now when you are in college, they say that you have studied all this in school. Do you guys really think this is a good method for studying. I am not saying this happens everywhere. There are some colleges which provide very good education but their fees are so high that it is not easy for the middle class to study in such colleges. I don't understand when the government gives so much money for education then why children are not getting proper education. In urban areas the condition is still good but in rural areas the condition is even worse.

But on a serious note why will students take it seriously, when they don't get desire recognition and position. Today people with minimum education are recognised and more famous and people also like them and consider them their role models but educated people don't get enough recognition. Then why will someone focus on studies.

There are just a few job vacancies in India every year but they are already reserved for so many people.

I'm not against the reservation but I just want to ask are all general category people are rich??

India's education system is really in bad condition currently.
