Students from Afghanistan move to Delhi to seek quality education in
India. Delhi’s Learning Academy is one such institute which has been imparting
both English and computer skills to Afghan students at a very minimal cost. Located
in the capital’s Jangpura Extension, the academy has been providing English
language and computer skills to some 2,000 Afghan students for the last five
years.
Currently, the academy has 100 Afghan students who are seeking training
in English language and computer skills. The ongoing conflict
in Afghanistan had forced Omar, a student from Kabul, to come
to India in 2008. His parents want him to seek quality education in
India and become a Computer Engineer. Omar said, we have education problem in
Afghanistan. I am doing 10th from an open school. I joined English classes at
Learning Academy to improve my skills. I have improved my English communication
skills.
Mustafa Kaimi is another student who came to India seeking greener
pastures. He said, I came here for good education. I think India is a good
place for education and now the situation in Afghanistan is not normal for
education. In Afghanistan people are suffering from security issues. Another
student from Afghanistan, Zymud Ilyasi added that we cannot go back to
Afghanistan because there are problems if we had not any problem in Afghanistan
we would not have come to India.
A large number of students who pass out from the academy are working in different sectors in India and Afghanistan. Prawal Mani Tripathi,Director, Learning Academy said that one thousand Afghan people so far are working in different sectors in India or may be in their own country have taken benefit from our programme.
