Give free education to all -- Satya Sai Baba
EXPRESS NEWS
SERVICE
PUTTAPARTHI,
NOV 23: Satya Sai Baba on Wednesday advised the Centre to
provide free education at all levels to make the system of
education more meaningful.
Speaking at the 19th convocation of the Shri
Satya Sai Institute of Higher Learning (Deemed University) Baba,
who is also Chancellor of the University, said that, the people
from all the section of the society could make use of the
education, if, that is offered free-of-cost.
The Government spends a large amount of money on
education, but that has not yielded desired results. Most of the
educational institutions were just involved in making money.
This had not led to good results from the present educational
system, he said.
Sai Baba advised Union Human Resource
Development (HRD) Minister Murli Manohar Joshi, who was present
at the convocation, to take up the matter with Prime Minister A
B Vajpayee.
Sai Baba said that the Satya Sai Institute not
only offers free education to students from all parts of the
country and all sections of the society, but it also gives them
scholarships and other facilities to encourage poor students
from taking up education.
Baba advised the students, who received degrees
and medals at the convocation, to serve the society. Education
is not just for living but it is for life, work for the
development of society and others welfare, he said. Chief
Minister of Andhra Pradesh N Chandrababu Naidu, Vice Chancellor
of the University, S V Giri, former Union Ministers S B Chavan,
VHP leader Ashok Singhal, students of the Satya Sai Institute of
Higher Learning and large number of devotees were present on the
occasion.
