5. Comprehension (Unseen):

Life without value education is like ship without rudder. Education without values or edification will fall short of achieving its goal. Mere teaching, learning, improving knowledge and skills without building character and mind may not contribute to the holistic development of children, which is a must for the world to become a better place. In spite of the increasing literacy rate and more people receiving education, the crime rate is refusing to come down!

The rise in crimes, violence and other destructive activities in the society can be ascribed to poor inculcation of values… Education policy makers need to lay more stress on education with much stress on imparting human values and edification. This will have better results than mere education. Once values are given priority in life, all the negative aspects of life will automatically evade. It is a dire need of the world to have people with high values to make it a better place to live in.
