Abstract

Education is the basic foundation of progress of the nation and the individual. Education has a deep connection with every aspect of life, directly and indirectly. All aspects of a person's life - physical, mental, physical, character, moral, behavioural, spiritual, religious, educational, business, politics and social etc. are affected by education. And it affects everyone.

In this way, different sections of the society – shopkeepers, working people, professional people, students, parents etc. are all related to education and they see education from their own perspective.

The origin of the word education is believed to be from two Sanskrit words, one is Shishu root and the other is Shaksha root, Shis means learning or gaining knowledge or studying. Shas means to keep in discipline, to keep under control and to give instructions.

Another word with the same or similar meaning as education is "Vidya" which is derived from the Sanskrit root Vid which means to know or to acquire knowledge
