Speech On The right to Education
First of all, good morning to the honourable principal, respected teachers and loving friends and all of you present here today. In your special presence, I would like to say a few words about the right to education.
People use many tools and devices in their homes. When they purchase these products, a user manual is also supplied in the box. This user manual is a guide on how to efficiently use the product. Hence, this user manual is the right for the customer.
Similarly, in human life, education acts like a user manual and is a right for humans. It guides them to efficiently use their body and mind to achieve the optimum level of living satisfaction.
Not only does it help us in efficiently use our body and brain but it also creates a distinction between other living beings and the human race. Just think if a person lives a life like any other living being, then what is the purpose of having the most incredible intelligence compared to any other species?
Human intelligence carries the power to destroy the entire planet as well as the power to transform the planet into a heaven-like place. Which is better between these two? Of course, everyone will opt for the second. It can only be done by supplying education to each and every human.
Understanding the fact, the Constitution (Eighty-sixth Amendment) Act, 2002 inserted Article 21-A in the Constitution of India for “the right to education”.
This aims to provide “free and compulsory education of all children in the age group of six to fourteen years as a fundamental Right”. As a result, the literacy rate of the country will increase. Moreover, it will also fill the gap between poverty and prosperity.
Nelson Mandela correctly said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”. We can build better societies to live in by educating each and every human being. Better societies make a better country and better countries will make a better world.
To sum it up, education is a fundament right for everyone and it should be free. The right to education act promises to provide “free and compulsory education of all children in the age group of six to fourteen years as a fundamental Right”. We can say that it is a step towards changing the world.
Thank you for listening to my speech. I hope you would have liked my thoughts.
