Teaching & research set up in India: an overview by Dr B. J. Kopper

Broadly there are 6 categories of teachers (be them school or IIT professors). They are: (1) Primary, (2) Secondary (3) Higher Secondary (4)Under Graduate College (5) PG College/University and finally (6)Technical.
The opportunity and facility for research is available to 4, 5, & 6, whereas 1,2,3 are either not , or do not get the support and/or time for research. Among 4, 5, 6 as above many are of the opinion that basic and prime duty is to teach, and research is secondary. Therefore it will be wise enough for decision makers to ponder and think (seriously enough) about creating TWO SECTORS, VIZ;
TEACHING and RESEARCH.Provide options for existing professional teachers to opt either of one. Build measures for progression in them. A person opting to be in Research sector shall continue to research and produce and add to the body of knowledge. Let the other who prefers to be in TEACHING sector teach. For him PhD and M Phil and any other degree shall only be decorative and one time benefiting events. These shall no bearing whatsoever for the career progression. Develop a better package for teachers of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Even it is heard that qualifications for 1 2 3 as above are lower than what is required for 4 5 6. It is true but nevertheless the hard work put in by these is reflected in the material entering the institutions of 4 5 6. Let there be progressive pay packages for all these 1 to 6, along with institutional allowances stipulated for different categories of achievement. People at the echelon keep saying that talent should attracted, talent should retained, and talent should be honed and used for not only knowledge disbursement but also for Producing it. In the present scenario it is not all possible. Goals are good but the path is laid with so many hurdles, troubles and self created impossibilities.
Why are making so much of hue and cry teaching faculty alone? I would like to quote here "Guru Brhama, Guru Vishnu, Gurudevo Maheshwara" a concept that keeps Guru above all, since gurus are the ones who make better citizens who make the country prosperous.
