\;,?

Education is the process by which our mind develops through formal learning at an
institution like school, college or university. It is mental and intellectual training, which
provides opportunities of growth and helps to overcome impediments and obstacles to
progress. Again, the purpose of education is to enlighten .the individual and to develop
his/her capacity to the limit. It is also the business of education to train individuals to
make the right choices to go ahe.ad. It ennobles our mind and refines our sensibility. It
also broadens our outlook and helps us become aware of our rights and responsibilities.
According to Newman, education gives a man a clear conscious view of his own opinions
and judgements, atruth in developing them, an eloquence in expressing them and a force
in using them .. Therefore, it is often compared to light, which removes the darkness of
ignorance and helps us distinguish between right and wrong. Julius Nyerere, President of
Tanzania, in 1974 said at an international conference that the primary purpose of
education is the liberation of man from the restrictions of habits and attitudes, which limit
his humanity. He further said, education should promote humanity and universal brotherhood,
and that it could be used as a catalyst for a change for the better. How right he was!

Since when have I started calling this' semi-summer the season of watermelon, I do not
know. It has been occurring to me in the last few years, when out of nowhere, suddenly
~home get filled with watermeloJ>at one of the busiest footpath markets, in
Farmgate. The juicy red pyramids that are put to raise the potential customers within one
rarely fail.
Recently, I started getting a similar kind of aura at my campus corridors, as a group of
students of our university were found determined enough to wear red and green
throughout the whole month of March. I found it quite interesting and thought of having a

One fine morning, I found my cubicle filled up with super-fine laughter of the
watermeloned girls. They, however, came up with a humble request to join them by being
a watermelonJ7y~f on any of the weekdays that Iwould prefer; eventually I would end
up at the t.,;L..fS't~;t evening.
rv~
But my first response or rather a query to them was "why"? They seemed a little hurt My
"why?" brought a "just-fell-from-the-sky" expression on their faces, all of them started
talking almost at the same time and my tiny ~9 started filling up with words like---
. C).1h•.'cb.-
freedom, independence, green Bengal, red sun/blood, martyrs --- and 26th March. That
evening, I also noticed that the tailors' are also boiling with 'nationalistic enthusiasm', but
they denied taking any order as they were too busy with sewing the red and greens _
shelwar-kameej-du~atta-PUnjabift. I hope the spirit of Independence will not be trapped
. within the colours only, let).s'surpass the season of watermelon, let us live the spirit
everyday as we grow. I do not know if such enthusiasms are sticky enough to hold on the

watermelon after a hot":long-semi-summer-walk and a fictive-nationalism-talk with my
