Education seems to be the answer to a lot of our problems, but anyone who has ever been part of the Indian education system knows that it doesn't work out that way. The gap between what you are taught and what the real world throws at you is centuries apart. In this episode, co-founder and CEO of Pratham, Madhav Chavan joins us to explain why the current system is incapable of dealing with the challenges of today and asks us to consider that we might not need it at all.
