Education & security

2016-02-16
EDUCATIONAL institutions are becoming brittle targets, and the recent acts of terrorism have made parents restless. Education in the face of such threats needs to be improved to meet the challenges.

Educational institutions must prepare brief lectures for their students to make them realise the threat of terrorists. In every period, a few minutes be spared for complying with the principles of vigilance in their surroundings.

Special assemblies can be held to inform students about the tactics likely to be used by infiltrators. The administration and academia together can groom students to fail the enemy`s designs.

Surroundings of educational institutions should not be left unattended.

Students can be utilised to keep an eye on the aliens. They must be made securityoriented without loss of their academic hours.The state can provide external protection only to a certain extent.
