Abstract

Complete development of a person is possible only through education, social contact and relationship. It is not only desirable but essential to train the individual to be able to subordinate his own needs and individuality to the social requirements. One cannot be a man all alone. The individual will mould itself according to the will of the society. That is why education should enable a man, a child, a community to cultivate such qualities in him as to benefit the society through his own activities. Education is considered the most powerful instrument of social change and development. It is through education that a society can bring desirable changes and development by developing the its members’ personal and social condition.
