Ever wondered, the plane on which you are travelling has a pilot, who is not even qualified to be one. Well, if you ask me, my answer will be a blank 'NO'. Its because we blindly trust our country's examination systems.

One of my dad's colleague's son got 40 % in his 12th board examination, and he wants to be a doctor. He almost passed in biology. But his dad wants to see him become a doctor, so that he gets settled. I wondered, whether his dad would even consult him if he needs a doctor. I feel pity for the patients who would consult him. But the most amazing part his that his dad's dream have come true. Yes! HE IS BECOMING A DOCTOR. I didn't even bothered to ask what type of doctor he is going to be ( it hardly matters). This is just one incident I have shared. I am sure there would be many.

I am just shocked to acknowledge that our country's future is going to such hands. True that our technology in all respects is getting advanced but at the same time our human intelligence is deteriorating day by day. What is the use of such development. No wonder people are so right when they say, in the near future machines are going to have a control on us.

This is one of the reasons why India lacks in research development area in such fields. This also affects our technology and our development. Just take the example of the above guy. Just think he becomes a doctor. The way he has gained the degree, just by the same way (just by showing a bunch of green valuable leaves), he would become a doctor in one of the recognised hospitals. What then? Getting a nice handsome salary would be the sole aim for him (his dad's wish). He would be totally unaware of the recent happenings in the medical world. This is infact would harm our country. Its like we are digging our own graves.

While writing the blog, I Just recognised what is the use of telling these problems? Most of the ''educated" people will be knowing about this and the consequences. What can we do to have a stop on this or at-least curb this to as small level as possible? After thinking for a while, I just came to conclusion that we cant control anyone's actions, but we can change or influence the mindsets of the people. All we need to do is create awareness among people regarding this type of foolishness. The blog is one of the attempt to create awareness. Hope the people reading this would show some concern.
