Riya, a young professional, feels that education gave her independence and job opportunities. She believes it
builds understanding and empathy, and expects more equality in the future through educated citizens.
Suresh, a parent, finds that education empowered him to provide for his family and raise children with values.
According to him, education enhances patience and decision-making. He strongly supports education with

ancient values, making education not just a degree, but a way of life.
