[6]6.A | Read the following passage and answer the question given below :

Read the following passage and answer the question given below:

    Education, since the coming of the British to India, has been secular in content. By this we mean the content of education did not include the study of sacred texts. Schools were open for all to learn and climb the ladder of vertical mobility. The study of the English language as well as the opportunity to study in the English medium was available.

    It is true that several Indians from certain social and economic strata were the first to access an English education. Many of them later constituted the intelligentsia of our society. They worked for religious, social, and educational reform in Indian society.

    Educational opportunities have grown by leaps and bounds in the last 73 years since Independence. One questions if the educated have merely acquired education or if the education has helped citizens become gainfully employed and more importantly, enlightened enough to transform society at the micro level.

    It is necessary for the government to consider the interests of all sections of society. Each citizen can play a dynamic role in the development of all people in our society.

  1. Explain: English education is a must in day-to-day life.
  2. Each citizen can play a dynamic role in the development of all people in our society. Explain.
