Education is the nurturing of the development of an individual
through the unhindered, unfolding of innate qualities. People
of Kullu have been very innocent and simple all these years, but
the light of wisdom & education has helped in flowering of
their creative potentiality and in revealing their inherent ability.
It has awakened their aptitude and helped to foster an integrated
life.
The
opening up of 10 Govt. Schools in 1948 was the first step towards
education in Kullu Valley. Since then there has been no looking
back. The first graduate from Kullu was in 1900. With passage
of time, meaning of education widened in Kullu and people took
to learning various things in order to walk with the outside world.
Now Kullu does not have just the schools and colleges for education
but there are a number of vocational training centres as well,
which have helped in building careers of the local people. A number
of sports and fine arts training centres have also come up which
are helping in enhancing the personality of the individuals.
Kullu now shows you the picture of an advanced town in the lap
of the Himalayas.
