Education in general aims at producing intelligent, responsible, well informed citizens. Most coun tries around the world spend a large amount of time and money to provide quality educa tion for their citizens as education is the foundation for success and progress. During the “golden age” of Gupta dynasty, India was ranked as one of the world’s foremost centers of Education. Unfortunately the British rule introduced Macaulay system of education, in India, by which we have lost our originality. Instead of concentrating on reputed learning, we began to concentrate on mere repetitive learning and insisted on mark oriented approach which has become a barrier for our creative and progressive thinking.
