Addressing a galaxy of audience after inauguration of Green Land Public School at Tehsil Chatroo, district Kishtwar here today, MLA Saroori said that in absence of moral education in the schools the younger generation is distancing from the basic fundamentals of life as they are just focusing on the value added education. This has resulted in erosion in the society and lot of unrest among the younger generation, he added. MLA said that district Kishtwar once used to be the guiding force in the spirituality and moral education to other districts of the state. But, during the past two to three decades, the moral values have eroded gradually and society has been confronting with many challenges on account of social evils, crimes against the women, drug addiction, dowry deaths and other anti-social issues. The need of the hour is to promote the moral ethics and rich heritage to revive the old traditions which strengthen bonds of mutual brotherhood and patriotism, especially to save the younger generation, MLA Saroori asserted. Saying that teachers have greater responsibility to nurture the children in right direction, the MLA Saroori maintained that teachers must uphold the credibility of this noble profession and produce quality product for the nation.
