Evening colleges-A gateway to development…

There are very few evening colleges in most of the areas. Many areas are without evening colleges. The policy of learning while earning fails where the timing of the evening college starts before five pm.
If the Government or the private colleges pay attention towards infra structure and the competent staff there will be more and more enrollment of the students.
It will not be a boon for those only who want to continue their study along with their livelihood but it will be beneficial for the society as well because it will create the educated class all around.  
It is the moral duty of every Government to think about the poor who are less privileged for their development and give them equal opportunity for the progress.

Advantages and disadvantages of mobile phones used by school students

Mobile phones, like other things have advantages as well as disadvantages. If it is taken to school there are chances of distraction from studies and cheating. There are chances of invasion of privacy by its misuse. It may also cause accident if attended while driving towards the school. 
But! A big but! It is an attack on the freedom of a student as well as an insult of the decision of most of the parents who gave mobile phone to their children, if it is banned to bring it to the school. So far as distraction from the studies is concerned the authority may instruct to keep it in silence mode and may ask the students not to bring the mobile in the examination hall to stop cheating by its misuse. Mobile is a substitute of paper and pencil. It may also help to add to the knowledge through internet use. Its proper use can be taught to the students by the teachers and parents. It is one of the best tools used after the school in life. So there remains no idea to ban mobile phones in school. We must believe our children and their intelligence.

Moreover the safety of the children must be given priority as the mobile phone keeps the children and the parents in contact with each other.  Its misuse by a few students should not be the cause to ban mobile phone in the school.
