Abstract

The present education system in Assam as well as in the entire country is not satisfactory with respect to modern competitive world. A section of people in our society is on the way to postmodern society whereas; about 30 percent people are still illiterate and are lagging behind. Our country is politically, socially and economically affected due to this unequal distribution of education. The primitive theoretical education system is dominantly occupying in our present education system. This mere theoretical knowledge is not sufficient to cope up with the present real world. The prevailing education system, especially run by the state government could not impart adequate knowledge to its students to compete with the present complex socio-economic sphere. Lack of teaching aids, insufficient practically qualified teacher, and negligence of some important subjects and lack of adequate educational infrastructure fail to make human capital to a required extent in our economy which ultimately acts as one of the factors of poverty unemployment problem. Therefore, our education system should be changed to some extent to be at par with the modern competitive and technological world. The existing problems should be identified and accordingly, proper strategies should be taken to solve these problems.
