Corruption & Illegal Practices
Corruption means to use, or be willing to use, political or social power to perform dishonest or illegal actions in return for money or some advantage.
Justice M N Venkatachaliah, then Chairman of National Human Rights Commission (1997) said-People think that corruption can solve their problems and fulfill their yearning(desire) for survival. But they will soon find that this is a mirage
Corruption can be prevented only by voluntary self-control together with inspiring leadership.
Science & Technology without Values
Scientific & technical study may increase a students knowledge of formulae & sharpen his/her memory & numerical faculties.
But without learning to apply the powers of reasoning & analysis to
subjects like language, literature, philosophy, etc., they are

inadequately prepared for the depth of human life.
Exploitation of Nature
People in India worship nature as deity & perform rituals before trees
& rivers, while on other hand there is reckless felling of trees & pollution of soil, water & air.
Increasing Use of Violence

India broadcasts the message of non-violence.

But still

Farmers abuse & beat their animals Domestic violence is prevalent
Voluntary self-restraint, education in moral & spiritual values are required.
Increasing use of intoxicants
Mainly caused due to

Stress of poverty
Peer pressure (more amongst youth) Illiteracy Pressure of tests & exams (in students) Erroneous belief Alcohol is good for health
In spite of social consequences, it is financially expedient for states to generate revenue from the sale & excise of alcohol.
Lack of Education in Values at All Levels
Greatest challenge to education in values lies with adults & their social attitudes (gender bias / adultery / corruption, etc.).
Adults are assumed to be inspirational role models but UNFORTUNATELY, many set a weak or negative example .
Anti-values acquired through Folklore
Folklore : Myths / Legends / Traditions
For many it is the only education.
