Dignity of labour equally important along with education

Books are our best friend it is completely true. They open the window of wisdom for us. We can't be educated if we ignore books. But we must not diminish or degrade the dignity of labour. It should also be included in our school curriculum. This is not implemented properly hence we find problems in correlating it in our practical life and also during taking our career option. Our children are only thought that they should only write or play with keyboards after getting education. They are not taught to make objects with their hands. In European countries plumbers and electricians have neon lights in their vehicle not the VIP'S.
Our father of nation Mahatma Gandhi had a very clear point of view ion these issues, according to him “Education of hand is equally important with books and children should make those objects which can be sold in the market. They should not make those objects which are only meant to be kept in the museum. We must train our children to produce things which will help them grow physically, mentally & spiritually.” Our President Mr. Kalam have the similar thoughts, “India must produce entrepreneurs who are not only self reliant but help many in getting employment opportunities. Then only India can be groomed to become a developed nation.”
It's hard time to realize and act and our schools must implement these ideas for the betterment of our society.
