Academic Railukata's by Husnain Raza
This profession was once known to be the prestigious one...yes teaching was one of the prestigious professions in our country, but like many other once upon a time stories, prestige to the profession has also become the once upon a time story....and every stakeholder is equally responsible for this typhoon. What brought this devastating change? Is it a teacher, student, system or any Khalai-Makhlooq?
There was a time when students could not raise their bowed heads in front of their teachers.
I remember the stories of my older
teachers saying they could not speak in front of their teachers.
Although the element of respect was there, but the teacher then portrayed a character
full of knowledge and experiences...unfortunately, today, we have all the fingers
pointing towards the teacher...The profession of teaching and its prestige has
been exploited in last two decades by the inclusion of Academic Railukata's in
the profession...
Academic Railukatas are not in one team
but in both teams (teachers and students), where teachers choose this
profession as the easiest way to secure a future, and students are more interested in
jobs than learning...The teachers in the past were more oriented towards their
passion for learning and sharing, which made him a complete package for the
disciples.... students then, even after much of their hardship, were not
able to learn more than that of their teacher...however, Railukata's today with
the commercialization of education is also focused towards materialistic gain
than to gain respect through knowledge and expertise…
The Railukata System hire Railukata
teachers to produce Railukata students…
The word MOTIVATION also holds significant importance in this
profession throughout the globe. However, in this part of the world, this word
only collocates with the meaning of materialism...yes, the actual motivation
for many lies in earning money through the easiest way. In the research on
teachers' MOTIVATION (which can be matched to the number of teachers in our country), these Railukatas come up with similar answers to those they prepared during their
joining interviews. Yet, many off the record tend to admit (many researchers
would agree on this) that the only remaining and effortless option for them was
this profession.
Instead of taking this as an opportunity to flourish through
responsibility and honesty, they prefer to act as Railukata and take this
chair, as well as students, for granted. This esteemed machine in this honourable
industry then produces perfect parrots.
