Who am I? What am I? Where am I from? Which religion do I belong to? These questions are irrelevant. What truly matters is what I’m about to share with you, and more importantly, what you are about to read or watch.
Education is a fundamental right. But today, across India, it is being exploited—and not just exploited in a way that impacts the few, but exploited in a way that is hurting every single parent, teacher, and child. This isn’t just a matter of policy—this is about the future of our children and the future of India itself.
For too long, parents have been burdened with excessive fees, arbitrary costs, and the imposition of an 18% GST on non-essential education services—costs that schools have made mandatory, despite these services not being required.
Teachers, the very people responsible for shaping the future, are facing exploitation with poor pay, inadequate working conditions, and intense pressure. And while all this is happening, government schools are shrinking, their resources depleting, and their ability to provide quality education diminishing.
I am from Haldwani, Uttarakhand, and my commitment is clear. I am not here to talk about me—I am here to speak up for every parent, every teacher, and every child. I have taken an oath to fight against this exploitation, and I am doing so every Sunday from 11 AM to 1 PM at Budha Park, Haldwani. I have already held four peaceful sittings and will continue until the government takes action to end this injustice in our education system.
But let me be clear—this fight is not just about me. It’s not about a single person. It’s about you—the parents who are struggling to keep up with the rising costs, the teachers who are overworked and underpaid, and the children who are missing out on a bright future because of an unfair system.
We cannot stand by and watch this happen anymore. We need to demand:
- Fair Treatment for Teachers: Proper pay, better working conditions, and the respect they deserve.
- Affordable Education for Parents and Children: No unnecessary financial burdens that keep quality education out of reach.
- Support for Government Schools – These schools are shrinking, but they are the lifeline for many children. It’s time we invest in them and give them the resources they need to succeed.
