NEW DELHI: Indian education system needs to be reformed so that it could incorporate culture-based education and link the younger generation with the older one, former NCERT director J S Rajput said on Sunday.
"The present education is based on Macaulay (a British academician) system. It delinks us from our culture....we have to link the younger generation to our generation and culture," Rajput said here at a symposium on 'Culture of Acceptance'.
There is a need to bring reform in the present education system, he said.
Justice Rama Jois, who was also present on the occasion, said, "in the present scenario when many parts of the world are facing religious conflicts, the only ray of hope is culture born in our country that respects every religion and ideas."
A book titled 'Expression of Christianity with special focus on India' was also released on the occasion.
