Abstract

newline Education is a designed process of human enlightenment. It is an empowering agent in a highly competitive and dynamic socio- economic global environment to achieve the better quality of life. In fact, education is essential to every type of individual as well as societal growth. It is the key that can open every lock and solve every problem. It is the mirror of the society which reflects its strengths, weaknesses, hopes, biases and culture (Kirk and Gallagher 1983). Thus, education is pillar of civilized society as it plays a vital role in maintaining social order, improving the living standards of the people and safeguarding human dignity. It is the single most important factor which shapes the personality, builds the character, moulds the habits and upgrades the knowledge of an individual. It prepares a person for social life and imparts him such knowledge and skills as would enable him to meet the challenges of daily life. Education is not only knowledge or information but an attitude and a way of life. It is bringing out man s manliness and making him realize his responsibility towards mankind.
