Aarin Capital chairman Mohandas Pai has expressed his disapproval of the Cockroach Janata Party’s (CJP) approach to its ‘School Thik Karo’ initiative, which aims to enhance government schools. Pai’s criticism highlights concerns regarding the effectiveness and implementation of the campaign.
Mohandas Pai said government school education in India needed major reforms, but argued that bringing large groups of people into schools was not the right way to bring change.
His comments came after CJP chief Abhijeet Dipke and other volunteers carried out a surprise inspection of a government-run school in Maharashtra. Dipke and his associates entered the school without permission, sat among students and asked them various questions. “I like young people taking interest in school education. You can’t do all that. There’s a mode of behaviour that we must have people do.”
Because you think that you are entitled to do it and say, ‘I’m going to question you’, and humiliate the headmaster, pai further stated, “You can’t just barge into a school just.
In an interview with NDTV, Pai said government school education in India needed major reforms, but argued that bringing large groups of people into schools was not the right way to bring change. It’s a broken system, and we need reforms,” Pai said. However, he added that such efforts must be carried out in a “right way” and without creating an unsafe environment for children.
