Pushakarna Professional Society 2.38

Learning and teaching is since ancient times remained profession and source of livelihood, till some decades ago, but with change of times and advancement of technologies, resulting in acute competition our community finding it hard to protect its hold. Till some decades in independent India, Government services with provided alternate employment opportunities, and with the inherent intellectuality and talent, we have succeeded to create a niche for ourselves in services; the reservation policies gradually eroded our presence in this sector too. Not only we have lost in Government employment, our interest in education lost attraction to the extent that we have now a days are hardly even trying for govt. jobs. Isolated cases are there where some of our children accomplished in technical and professional fields, here too our family attachment and personal taboos prevents us from settling away from home. Generally our children have to remain satisfied even with less then appropriate emolument then increasing their horizons.
