Even school students are getting more interested in diverse entertainment programmes and less in their lessons. Extracurricular activities are necessary, but not to the extent that they neglect their books. After they pass the examitions and attain their goal, they may of course dabble in politics or in anything they like. And with television supplying the youths with the staple food of villainy, crimes, romance, fighting and all that hotchpotch every day, our children are no longer interested in dull subjects like mathematics, science, literature etc. Who would like to get confined to the study table, while television is offering such large doses of entertainment?
