One thing that many of us hated in our childhood was going to school. The burden of carrying books, the list of never-ending homework and strict teachers were some of the many reasons behind it.
No wonder, when a little girl’s video of sharing her disappointment with school and education system surfaced on social media, within no time, it went viral.
Originally posted on Twitter by a police officer, Arun Bothra, the video captured a girl asking for ‘chutkara’ from her school for at least a month.
With innocence, she elaborates how our education system has turned every child’s morning into a set of monotonous rituals of waking up, brushing teeth, drinking milk and rushing to school. She further expresses her anger and disappointment over the schedule in schools –
“Pehle prayer, phir english, phir EVS, phir maths…”.
Later in the video, her answer to the question of what she would do to the person who designed the concept of schools is one of the funniest parts of the video.
The person who started schools in this world is in serious danger. This girl is searching for him ???? pic.twitter.com/SuOZ4befp1

While answering what she would have done to the person who came up with the idea of schools, she mentioned-
“Main use dho ke na, pure paani mein daal ke istri kar daalungi”.
The video has already garnered more than 2.5 lakh views and people couldn’t agree more with what little girl has to say.
We grown-ups can also relate with “chhutkara chahiye ek mahine”, if we replace the words.
School – office.
Maths, English – meetings and conference call.— Pravas (@iamPravas) November 13, 2019

Delhi Deputy CM and Education Minister, Manish Sisodia also commented on the video.
Oh my God! स्कूल बनाने वालों और चलाने वालों के लिए भी एक स्कूल खोलना पड़ेगा… और इस स्कूल की प्रिंसिपल होगी हमारी ये नन्ही बिटिया …. https://t.co/7wxQxNNDiQ

This little girl’s rant may be innocent and hilarious, but it definitely raises an important question around our education system in India.
