A Study on Gandhiji’s Basic Education and its Relevance in the Modern Education

Abstract

The modern educational system which has been adopted in India is badly equipped to achieve the overall objective of humane, scientific, and peaceful social order. It does not provide them wealthy opportunities for their all round development to make them self reliant. Nowadays the students are passing examinations and earning their degrees with first or higher divisions, but most of them are unable to become self reliant and incapable to face the challenges. So, to overcome this condition Mahatma Gandhi has attempted to explore a system of education which is called 'Basic education’ or 'NaiTalim’. This system of education conforms with his philosophy of life and values. In the Basic Education system, knowledge must be related to activity and practical experience. Gandhi realized that basic education was an essential component of the structural and socio economic imbalances that were badly affected. His idea of basic education not only changed the educational system of India but also led to a social revolution. This paper aims to understand the Basic education system and its impact on the modern education system.
