Generally, in many places inefficient teachers are appointed by the authorities on the basis of recommendation. Sometimes they select inefficient hands to pay less. The result is that the schools and colleges plays with the lives of the young students. Among teachers, there is friction. Sometimes principals harass teachers and sometimes teachers unite against them. The result is that schools / colleges becomes places of petty politics. Another cause is that schools and colleges are over-crowded. III-fed, ill-clothed and tuition hunter teachers are there to teach. Paper are out. students are tempted to go to the safest way of tuition. When there is no work, indiscipline comes in an idle man's mind is the devil's workshop.
