Becoming A Responsible Citizen: Can Education Help?



Every citizen has duties and responsibilities which they have to fulfill in a suitable
manner.
Education builds the character of a citizen. Education doesn’t mean just to study
course books but its actual meaning is to understand the lessons of the book.
Education should not be considered complete until it is practiced. So besides
studying and understanding, applying the lessons of books in our daily life is very
important.
Education is very important in making a responsible citizen. Education is helpful in
many ways. An educated person knows about his responsibilities and rights well. Reclaiming Cultural and Social Diversity: Mobilizing Youth for National Harmony and Peace: the Search for Resources Within

As we are students, we know how education helps in becoming a good and
responsible citizen. Only an educated person is able to eliminate social crimes such
as firing at different festivals etc. Education helps the citizens to select an able
candidate who will put the nation on the right path.
With the help of education we know that cleanliness is very important for the health
of people. An illiterate person doesn’t know the importance of cleanliness. Only an
educated person will know that it is our responsibility as a citizen to keep our country
and city clean.
As it is said: “White paper and youth can take any color”.
Therefore we should educate our youth in the right manner. Only then they will be
able to become responsible citizens. We should also keep in mind that men and
women should be educated equally. As it is said:
“Women hold up half of the sky at the same height as “men.”
Thus, education should be imparted equally to men and women to develop a healthy
society as they take equal part in the progress of the country.
