    When you select low caliber people for teachers position ....this is likely to happen....we pay very high salary to Doctors and Engineers....so our best talent goes there....we give much less salary to teacher's that's why low Caliber people become teachers in India...See South Korea....where teacher's are paid highly...see how South Korea progressed after Korean war of 1950...their products and professionals compete with US in almost in every product except Defense and Aviation'.. India needs quality teachers from Elementary to Post Graduation....to become first world country.... ...Tak...Takk...
