Buniyadi Shiksha: बुनियादी शिक्षा
by Mahatma Gandhi"बुनियादी शिक्षा" महात्मा गांधी के स्वावलंबी और समग्र शिक्षा दर्शन पर आधारित है, जिसे 1937 की वर्धा शिक्षा योजना के तहत विकसित किया गया। गांधीजी ने शिक्षा को सरल, व्यावहारिक और स्थानीय आवश्यकताओं के अनुरूप बनाने पर जोर दिया। उन्होंने पाठ्यक्रम में कताई, खेती जैसे शारीरिक श्रम को शामिल करते हुए शारीरिक, मानसिक और नैतिक विकास को एक साथ बढ़ावा देने की बात कही। गांधीजी ने पारंपरिक रटने वाली शिक्षा प्रणाली की आलोचना की और अनुभवात्मक शिक्षा को अपनाने की वकालत की। इस योजना का उद्देश्य ग्रामीण भारत के बच्चों के लिए शिक्षा को सुलभ, किफायती और उपयोगी बनाना था। गांधीजी इसे राष्ट्रीय विकास और आत्मनिर्भरता का मार्ग मानते थे, जो विद्यार्थियों को न केवल स्वावलंबी बनाता है, बल्कि समाज की प्रगति में भी योगदान देने के लिए प्रेरित करता है।
