Today's article on HT Mint by Alakh sir, reflects on the journey of Indian education and the challenges that still persist, particularly for students from lower-income backgrounds. As we mark 78 years of independence, it’s clear that true educational freedom requires more than just access, it demands quality and equity for all. At Physics Wallah, we are dedicated to making this vision a reality. Let's work together to make 2024 the year of freedom for Indian education.

Aaj sab Raksha Bandhan celebrate kar rahe hain, Behane apne bhai ki hath par Rakhi bandhti hain ki bhai Jeevan bhar uski raksha karega , Lekin aaj kolkata ka ek ghar suna pada hai, aaj ek bhai ki kalai suni padi hai, aaj ek behan apne bhai se raksha ka vachan nahi le pai, kyunki isse pahle hi samaaj ke kuch rakshaso ne use apna shikar bana liya…. Bahut sharam ki baat hai ki, Sena me mahilayein poore desh ki suraksha kar rahi hain, aur ham yahan apni behan betiyon ki suraksha nahi kar paa rahe hain. Aaj hum kahte hain ki kabtak ye sab hota rahega? Hum apni sabhi behno se kahenge ki, “Ab Kaali ka Roop dharan karne ka samaye aa gaya hai, Pyaar me Radha, Grahasti me Janki aur Maa me Yashoda ka roop hum sabne dekha hai, Lekin ab khud ke Samman ke liye Kaali Roop dharan karna hoga” Desh ke har yuva se hum yahi kahenge ki Aaj Ye jo Rakhi humari kalaiyon par bandhi hai, wo sirf aapki behan ki Rakhi nahi hai balki uski taraf se desh ki har ladki ki raksha ka sutra hai. Hum vachan dete hain ki, hum apni sabhi behno ki suraksha ke liye har mumkin koshish karenge, chahe wo Self Defence ki Workshops ho ya phir PW Prerna Girl’s Helpline, hum har kadam par aapki dhaal bankar apke aage khade rahne ka prayas krege Happy Rakshabandhan!
