Churachandpur visit

Today (18th Match, 2006) is holi day. Here 5 days are for Holi celebration. In the early morning, I started for CCP with some Govt. officers. On the road, I saw that the younger girls made barricades here and there to collect the contributions from traffics. I find that females are involved in income generation programme on the other hand female literacy is low than male. Does it mean that people find no relation between income generation and education ? In CCP, I met the concerned officer, took lunch at his home. From him, I got following issues: 1. Introduction of new script of Manipuri language 2. Language or dialect 3. Problems of insurgency and education 4. Problems in teaching Math and Sc. subjects I handed over 114 questionnnaires to him for collection of data following specific sample plan. During return, I visited Loktak lake. BSF jawans escorted us.
