IF ONLY WE COULD...


If only we could stop by, 

To see the Goddess of Justice losing her sword to the men of unveiled shame...

If only we could stop by,

To see those men untying her blindfold and tightening it around her neck...

If only we could remove the buds from our ears,

And hear the Republic scream...

If only we could at least resolve to be a witness,

To the spoliation of thousands of dreams...

 For the resolve to stop by,

And look straight into the eyes is an act of valour,

In an era of people,

Yoked to misogyny bigotry, power, and greed.

For the courage to stand even though still,

Portends the afterthought of, 

Marching with rage until the injustice bleeds.

ROLE OF DIFFERENT STAKEHOLDERS IN SKILL DEVELOPMENT

India is a country with one of the largest youth population in the world. More than 62% of the population is in the working age group. According to some estimates, around 250 million people would be joining the workforce in the next decade. This will greatly enhance the degree of competition, which would eventually lead to, as Darwin said, “Survival of the Fittest”. Employees would be required to have more and better skills than they originally need to survive.  Not only this, globalisation too has played a major role in reflecting the need for a better, skilled workforce, both for the developed and developing nations. It has also been observed that nations with highly skilled human capital tend to have higher GDP and per capita income levels and they adjust more effectively to the challenges and opportunities of the world of work and jobs.  Against this backdrop, India is driving unique initiatives to convert its demographic potential into a dividend that will fuel the countr...

ABOUT US, FROM US

“No one is born a good citizen; no nation is born a democracy. Rather, both are processes that continue to evolve over a lifetime.Young people must be included from birth. A society that cuts itself off from its youth severs its lifeline; it is condemned to bleed to death.”   - Kofi Annan. It is the youth of today that moulds the future of tomorrow. It is them who have to live through the consequences of policies taken today and this makes it unconditional, but imperative to give their words a voice and equip them with few skills that good governance of tomorrow calls for, namely, critical thinking, analytical flair and research capabilities which shall enhance their prudence as torch bearers of the better future envisaged by all. And the responsibility for this falls on the shoulders of centres of education which impart excellency to the youth blooming under their wings. Miranda House ...
