IIT Delhi to IIM Bangalore to IAS. I got the best education my country had to offer. It taught me how to crack tough exams and manage big responsibilities. But it never taught me how to quiet my own mind or handle loneliness. We spend many years learning how to achieve, but not a single day learning how to be happy.
My thoughts on what is missing in school education.

Emotional Regulation:
We memorized the periodic table, but no one explained the chemistry of a broken heart. School demanded we stay quiet, confusing silence with peace. Now, we don't know how to host our own storms without drowning in them. We feel lost because we were taught to suppress, not to process.

Deep Communication:
We were taught to write perfect essays, but not how to say "I’m hurting" or "No." While there is a strong emphasis on communication, we are not taught the vocabulary of the adult life. There is no course on how to stand our ground in face of bullying by a boss or how to protect our work boundaries by saying 'No'

Critical Thinking:
In school, the person with the most answers won. In life, the person with the most questions survives. This is the reason many adults can repeat opinions confidently without ever questioning where those opinions came from. We are told everything as the gospel truth. So we end up just following blindly

Financial Literacy:
We spent years learning maths and solving for x, but never learned how to keep ourselves from falling in a debt trap. Money isn't just about math; it’s about the dignity of choice. We do not learn how to use debt effectively without it controlling our freedom. How impulsive spending compounds over time, or how money affects stress, relationships, and mental peace. Financial literacy is missing because education often focuses on earning money someday, not managing it wisely once it arrives.

Self-Discipline
School is a world of bells and schedules. Someone else always tells you what to do and when. But adulthood is a world of total silence. We feel stuck because we were never taught how to push ourselves without a teacher watching. Discipline is simply the habit of keeping promises to yourself. This is a habit many of us are lacking

Handling Loneliness
In school, you are always shrouded by people. You never realize how loud the silence of adulthood can be until you’re in it. We feel lonely because we weren't taught how to be our own best friends. Peace is learning that being alone doesn't mean being lonely. It is a sacred space, not a sign of being unwanted.

Reading People
School is a time of innocence where friendships are often given to you. But as we go along, not everyone retains that purity. We feel cheated because we weren't taught to see the hidden intentions or the masks people wear. Reading people is the quiet wisdom of seeing the truth behind the words.

Mental Health Maintenance
We have gym class for our bodies, but nothing for our souls. We are taught to push through exhaustion to finish a project, which is exactly how we end up in burnout. Honoring your nervous system is the only way to make sure the light inside you doesn't go out. We should know when we are dealing with a stressor and unable to handle it anymore. We should know when to reach out for help if we feel that we are drowning in that distress

Knowing Yourself
We spend years trying to be the "best" student, only to realize we don't know who we are without a gold medal. We are left inadequate because we studied every subject except our own souls. The ultimate education is discovering what truly matters to you before the world tells you what to want.

PM’s Clarion Call on Responsible Antibiotic Use in Mann ki Baat
PM Modi today made strong appeal for responsible antibiotic use. Citing ICMR report, he said antibiotics are becoming less effective against common diseases like pneumonia & UTI.@MoHFW_INDIA @PMOIndia @ICMRDELHI

[Physics In History @PhysInHistory]

Paul Dirac's Ph.D thesis was not typed. It was handwritten and submitted in 1926. The title of the thesis was simply "Quantum Mechanics". Dirac is one of the founding fathers of Quantum Mechanics.

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

ICMR यानि इंडियन काउंसिल ऑफ मेडिकल रिसर्च की हाल ही की एक रिपोर्ट बताती है कि निमोनिया और UTI जैसी बीमारियों में Antibiotic दवाएं कमजोर साबित हो रही हैं। इसका एक बड़ा कारण बिना सोचे-समझे इनका सेवन है। इसलिए मेरा आग्रह है कि Doctors की सलाह के बिना Antibiotics दवाएं ना लें।

Back when I lived in Jaipur & Delhi winters – cough, cold, & tonsils were routine.
Since joining the Forest Service in 2018, life shifted closer to forests: Dehradun, Katni, Maihar, Barwani, Rewa, now Panna.
6 winters, 0 cough.
Sometimes, the cure isn’t medicine; it’s Clean Air.
