You never cease to amaze me, Dr Colaco! Let me ask you: Before 1961, how
many people sent their wards to elite schools?
For your information, this is a problem of relatively recent origin and is
not limited to Goa alone. It has been written about umpteen times in the
national and regional press. As you rightly said, education has been
commercialised by cartels of unscruplous and anti-social elements.
To get my younger son admitted to the kindergarten of a reputable school in
Madras last year, I'd to fork out a tidy sum (for me) of Rs 20,000 in one
go!
Please don't look at everything thru the prism of 'before & after 1961'!
