Again, two years back appeared a news item, National Commission for Backward classes Chairman, Justice R.N. Prasad had regretted that though backward classes in the country constitute 85 per cent of the population, so called upper classes monopolise around 90 per cent of the appointments in the Government and non-Government sectors. These facts reveal that even the educated Muslims with University degrees, have not achieved excellence in the subjects that they have chosen for their studies. It is an age of excellence and achieving excellence alone leads a person to go higher and higher. Most of the people in the length and breadth of the country including those belonging to the Muslim Community try their best to get his son or daughter admitted into a Christian Institution, the reason being that these institutions have achieved excellence in the field of education. Institutions run by Muslims should emulate their examples.
Greater responsibility lies on the shoulders of teachers.
The management should see that teachers are made to stay within the campus and serve the students. Statistics show that most of the prestigious institutions are either residential or they have staff quarters within the four walls of the institutions. This system, to a great extent reduces the participation of teachers in one business or the other neglecting their primary duties of teaching properly. The Muslim should be time-conscious. Earlier it was often quoted as a saying if wealth is lost, nothing is lost, if health is lost, something is lost, and if character is lost, everything is lost.
