The year 2017 saw many widely reported crimes committed within school premises. In its bid to ensure the safety of children and improve learning outcomes, the Kejriwal government is installing CCTV cameras in classrooms across government schools. But will this help?
Men have a societal and personal stake in keeping their hair intact and are ready to go to any lengths to keep it. But a hair transplant can’t fix thinning hair.
Air India’s new policy, effective from 2 May, introduces new weight limits for tickets in each of the different 'fare families' — Comfort, Comfort Plus, and Flex.
New Delhi has, in past, too, objected to Chinese construction activities in Shaksgam Valley. Work in this strategic region gathered pace after the 2017 Doklam stand-off.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
I strongly agree with Dr Shyamlal Ganguli Chief Education Officer Aditya Birla Group that it is most unethical to put CCTV cameras in classrooms reason the fear of being watched every moment will hamper the over all development of the child. The child will be in constant fear of being watched. The child will become more introvert and would fear sharing. I personally think that Mr Kejriwal should have had a discussion with a child Psychatrist and other educationist before taking such a decision.one cannot compare children with computers. Mr Meghnad S. is right.the kids will be living in constant fear of doing something which might upset their parents. Even without the presence of CCTVs, kids think twice before asking the teacher a question. They assume that if it’s an uncomfortable query the class will make fun of them and now where every action is captured the child will not share his piece of mind with anyone. We are saying”पढेगा India तभी तो बढेगा India “but if
constant डर में रहेगा India तो कैसे विकास करेगा India ‘” I personally am scared to think that with this constant fear of being watched will give us which type of citizen ?That answer will be again something Out of the box thinking ???
How very hypocritical of ThePrint’s which recently derided anti-Aadhaar activists but now gives voice to opinions (the majority of) which are against surveillance in schools.
It logically follows that these anti-surveillance opinions also belong to the same wine-drinking and cheese-eating elite.
Surveillance is a weapon which the state uses to create a chilling effect.
It makes no difference whether the targets are children or adults.
As pointed by Mr Shyamlal Ganguli, that don’t we trust our teachers. I think the whole idea is not about trust or distrust. Its about student and teacher safety. Having the thought of being under surveillance, will teach students to be calm and respectful to others. It will definitely stop bullying and harassment among students and teachers will be more careful about their conduct in classroom. If nobody is doing nothing wrong then what is the fuss about. Why are students and teachers concerned about. In fact they should be happy they are being monitored and are safe.
Like Mr Meghnad S. said, about students hesitating to ask questions to teachers due to camera is utterly illogical. The class will make fun even if there are no cameras.
Lastly addressing Enakshi Ganguly Thukral, I would like to say that no body in the right mind would suggest to install cameras in bathrooms, let along implementing it. The mere thought of having a cctv camera will divert the thought of any serious mischief or crime in the school vicinity.
I appreciate this initiative by the delhi govt. Wish the same system was there, when i was in school.
