Once upon a time when we were kids, going for tuition was considered shameful! :pout:

Now going for tuition has become a pride and a status symbol of the family! :popcorn:

 [h=3]Pressured by tuitions: Let our children fall in love with learning again[/h] Around this time last year, a horde of panicked parents made desperate phone calls to their local post office. “Please check again, letter aaya hoga” they badgered the local postman who in turn, started to silently calculate the baksheesh inflation rate for the year. The pack wasn’t checking on some urgent medical test results – panic had spread because admission decisions to the city’s most elite kindergarten were in the mail. I know because I was part of the herd.

We seem to freeing every factor from every other factor!

Once upon a time the right sequence to start a family was
Engagement, Wedding, Nuptial, Pregnancy, Confinement and delivery.

BUT NOT ANY MORE!!!!

The last step can be reached either directly or by cutting short
the long sequence to be rigorously followed to reach it.

The latest in the list of the freedom from bondage is
The importance of the marks secured in the XII standard for admission in NIT!
