Imphal, January 23:
Students should always keep the objective in mind while pursuing their studies.
Without knowing the objective, they would never be able to become a successful person in life, principal of RK Sanatombi Devi College of Education S Gunadhor has observed.
Speaking as one of the resource persons in a lecture programme on education organised by Manipur Students' Federation (MSF), Bishnupur District Committee at Bishnupur Girls' High School today, Gunadhor pointed out that majority of the students today lack discipline and clarity of their objective in life.
Even among the numerous student bodies which have been floated, there are some which do not work for the welfare of the student community but have been set up simply to make it convenient for taking up contract works, Gunadhor said, adding that students should not divert their minds and have genuine interest in their studies.
Gunadhor who spoke on the topic of role of teachers in educating and moulding the character of the students to make them responsible persons, further observed that among the teachers too, there are some of them who do not perform their duties sincerely.
For instance, there are teachers who do not even take the roll call of the students not to mention about teaching the students, he said, adding a concerted efforts on the parts of all the stakeholders is required to rectify such attitudes for improving the standard of education in Manipur.
