Transcript
00:00When you see teachers shouting at students, what would you...?
00:04We need a society where the best ones would be teachers.
00:09If in schools teachers are shouting at students and showing them down and just disrobing them psychologically,
00:17that tells something about the teachers and a lot about that society the teachers come from.
00:24That society is sending its best ones probably to B-schools.
00:31And for that they earn more money.
00:34Sorry, I'm being passionate.
00:37No, but that's...
00:39Just there, I want to point it out that even after emerging from a B-school, you can still choose
00:43to be a teacher.
00:45Schools in India have this problem of having accidental teachers.
00:49Most teachers who come and teach, they have joined the teaching,
00:52not because they enjoy it, but because it pays for their merit, you know.
00:57A sad situation.
00:58Yeah.
00:59And you know what would come out of it.
01:00Not just that the teacher and his family and the environment at his home would be a dark one.
01:08So many students, any student that this teacher is now going to touch is going to be scarred.
01:13Though I would want to insist that the scars are a choice, especially after you turn adult.
01:20But the practical reality is that the scars remain.
01:24Absolutely.
01:31And when in the night you areOhriah, you will have the same host home.
