Gave option of wearing or keeping off mask(i chose not to wear)<\/p>\n<p>-So from masks and as u are a doctor, in N95 mask, what is N and 95 exactly?<br \/>\n-coaching is a menace on education system, what are ethical issues involved?<br \/>\n-what steps can be taken to tackle it?<br \/>\n-what is size of coaching industry.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Member 1<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>-U are so against coaching and still u urself running a coaching class?<br \/>\n-if u are an education secretary, what u will do tackle\/regulate coaching industry?<br \/>\n-What is Ayushman Bharat?<br \/>\n-Have u seen any patient getting benefit of PM-JAY?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Member 2<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>-So Dr\u2026u criticised lot the education system, but same system produced good people who lead MNCs and not the people who have studied had so called IB board schools who promote creativity and all.

I reminded of criticism to coaching and pointed out to Resilience among studnts who face hardships and also to educational excellence of Public funded Higher Education institutions (IIT, IIM, AIIMS, JNU)<\/p>\n<p>-Yes Adverisities bring best out of people.<br \/>\nAnd luxury of studnts from boards like IB, lack that (i said, sir i think we cannot generalise that), the he said there is data about that, (I didn\u2019t say ye or no for that)<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Member 3<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Picked up my earlier discussion about Teacher training-<br \/>\nYou are doctor, but talked lot abt education and esp teacher training which happened to mu domain( i said , thats great sir, I m glad to know).<br \/>\n-what changes in entrance examination like JEE\/UPSC u wud bring if u are made UPSC chairman or head of exam conducting body. ( preceded by long monologue abt high difficulty level of questions in JEE)<br \/>\n-monologue abt short cut tricks\u00a0 taught at coaching and then erosion of values , my take on it.<br \/>\n(He was interested in asking more questions, but chairman sir signalled him to pass)<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Member 4<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>(Speaking in Hindi)<br \/>\n-Narrated his experience abt unnecessary diagnostic tests he had to do at private hospital and mentioned abt demand-supply concept in\u00a0 such scenarios.
