#Wikidata - Inspired Teacher of #India

Subjects and relevant subjects taught in university are not necessarily the same. When medicine is taught in India, diseases that are prevalent in India are relevant while diseases prevalent in Europe and North America are not so much. An article in the Metro India suggests that Indian textbooks do not have their priorities right and therefore subjects that matter are not taught or researched in University.

The Inspired Teacher Award is a new award for India and as it means that professors are honoured when they teach subjects that matter, it is quite wonderful. 

As a reward it is quite special; it is not the money it is time with the president of India and top bureaucrats that provides them with a platform to have their voice heard. At this time there are no articles nor items for the individual professors, something that is bound to change.
Thanks,
