Water in Chennai is supplied by the municipality. But municipality is unable to meet 100% of demand. Some areas get regular water supply while many areas get erratic supply of water.

Private educational institutions; schools, colleges, universities, technical and vocational training institutes are coming up in our country in a big way. On the other hand, educational institutions run by the government are becoming relatively less important. What do you think would be the impact of this? Discuss.

Answer»

Coming up of private educational institutions and decline of government educational institutions is a bad omen. Earning profit is the main motivation for private schools. Private schools charge very high fee which is out of reach for most of the people. In the absence of affordable education, education will be out of reach for majority of the population. Education is a basic need and hence there should be universal access to education. Lack of universal access to education will result in a country with large number of uneducated people. This will be bad for the development of human resources in the country.

22.

Why should schools have Parent Teacher Association and Mata Palak Sangh?

Answer»

Schools should have Parent Teacher Association and Mata Palak Sangh because:

1. They bring about a dialogue between parents and teachers. 

2. Parents can help in various activities of the school. 

3. We learn with the help of both teachers and parents. 

4. Their interactions are to our benefit.

23.

Why do you think there are so few cases of private water supply in the world?

Answer»

Water is a basic necessity for all. Nobody can live without water. Hence, universal access to safe drinking water is necessary for quality of life. Many water borne diseases can be prevented by providing safe drinking water to people. This also helps in bringing down the child mortality rate.

In view of this, water needs to be supplied either free of charge or at a charge that is affordable by everyone. Private companies operate with the main goal of earning maximum profit. Hence, a private company cannot be in a position to supply water at a rate which is affordable to all people. Due to this, there are very few cases of private water supply in the world.

24.

Why are most of the private hospitals and private schools located in major cities and not in towns or rural areas?

Answer»

The private hospitals and private schools are opened with the sole motive of earning profit. They charge high amount of money from their customers. The hefty amount of money; charged by such hospitals and schools; can only be affordable for some selected people even in cities. There would be nobody to afford such a high cost in towns and villages. Hence, most of the private hospitals and private schools are located in major cities and not in towns or rural areas.

25.

How does the community have a role in the development of a school?

Answer»

1. Many people and institutions help to set up a school. 

2. A school is given assistance in the construction of classrooms, libraries, laboratories and procurements of sports equipment.

3. Thus the community helps in the development of a school.

32.

Are the above public facilities shared equally by all the people in your area? Elaborate.

Answer»

Water supply is not shared equally by all the people in this area. While each house in middle class locality has separate connection for water, about 50 houses in the slum have to manage with a single water tap. While people of middle class homes can buy water from tankers in case of need, those in slum are not in a position to do so. However, other facilities, like electricity, road and public transport are shared equally by all.

33.

Data on some of the public facilities are collected as part of the Census. Discuss with your teacher when and how the Census is conducted.

Answer»

Census is conducted by the government. The whole operation takes place in two stages. The first stage involved ‘House Listing’. The second stage involved enumeration of data. Thousands of paid volunteers are employed on contract basis for this task. The volunteers go from door to door to collect data. The data is finally tabulated and calculated to give the final report.

36.

Do you think the distribution of public facilities in our country is adequate and fair? Give an example of your own to explain.

Answer»

I live in an urban area. The area where I live is a middle class locality; with a few slums in between buildings. The buildings in this area get municipal water supply. But water comes only twice a day, i.e. for two hours in the morning and two hours in the evening. Situation often becomes worse during summer months. Situation in the slum is even worse because of presence of just one tap for about 50 houses. People in slum can often be seen fighting with each other to get water. The electricity supply is also erratic and we get power cut for at least 8 hours in a day. There is a bus stop near this area and thus we have access to public transport. Frequency of buses is very good and most of the people are satisfied with the service. Sanitation is a big issue in this area. This is evident from heaps of garbage and overflowing drains. This can be said that distribution of public facilities is neither adequate nor fair.
