dated November 14, 1957: Education reform

Mr. C. Subramaniam, Education Minister, said that the Madras Government were giving their best attention to the problems facing the teachers because they knew that the success of any educational system depended largely on the teaching profession. The Minister moving for the consideration of the report of the Legislature Committee on the White Paper on education in the Legislative Council on November 12, emphasised the need for co-ordinating the high school system of education and the university scheme of education. The Education Minister pleading for avoidance of wastage at all levels said that if they found that in practice there was certain wastage, the Legislature was entitled to look into it. As such, he appealed to the university authorities to plan avoiding wastage. Mr. C. Subramaniam pointed out that the report symbolised the joint effort of the members of the Legislative Assembly and Council and also the representatives of different political parties in the legislature. The White Paper was submitted in 1956 and due to the general elections it had not been possible to place the White Paper before the legislature earlier. He was glad to mention that experts in the educational field like the Vice-Chancellors of the Madras and Annamalai Universities were associated with the Committee.
