Education System Has Collapsed’: Akhilesh Yadav Launches ‘Vision India’ To Tackle Exam Paper Leaks
Lucknow: Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Saturday unveiled “Vision India”, a new party-led campaign aimed at tackling repeated examination paper leaks and supporting students, while steering the country toward what he called a “positive, realistic, and progressive future.”
In a statement posted on his official X account, Yadav said the Vision India initiative intends to remould the nation into a “Neo India” that pursues development for all citizens without discrimination.
“Today, India has become a country where people have to face difficulties and struggles at every step. To solve these problems, we have
thought of a path – ‘Vision India’ – which will lead us towards a positive, realistic, and progressive future. With a positive, practical, progressive, and creative approach, Vision India strives to transform India into ‘Neo India’ for the development of our country and countrymen, without any bias or discrimination,” the statement said.
Yadav accused the current administration of undermining the education system through persistent corruption, asserting that a pattern of paper leaks, cancelled examinations, unfilled vacancies and tinkering with evaluation and reservation policies has dimmed the prospects of young people.
“In the current government, the education and examination system has collapsed due to extreme corruption. Paper leaks, cancelled exams, failure to fill vacant posts, and manipulation of evaluation-reservation policies have pushed the future of the youth into darkness and have increased unemployment tremendously. Teachers are burdened with non-academic tasks, and primary schools are closing down. A negative ideology wants to dominate education up to the PG level rapidly. In this dismal scenario, superficial reforms will not work; a radical change must be brought now,” he said.
The inaugural conference of Vision India is scheduled for June 29 in Prayagraj and will focus on the theme, “Education-Examination: Why the System Has Collapsed.”
