Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today. —  Malcolm X


"These subjects cannot be adequately covered in just a month or a year; they require regular and ongoing attention to truly understand their core concepts and actual impacts. It's not enough to simply offer them as optional subjects or to include them for the sake of improving rankings or results. They must be recognized as essential components of a well-rounded education that can help students become informed and engaged citizens. Only then can we hope to see real change in our society and the world at large." — Parthapratim Dash (Author).
