A lot more importance is given to grades in Indian education system. Knowledge is not as valued as it should be. Parents expect children to score good marks irrelevant of the fact whether it is knowledge or cramming. Through my artwork I want to shed light upon this issue. Learning and Knowledge should be valued more than grades. This painting by young artist Garima Sangrai (18 years) received a Gold Medal in Khula Aasmaan art competition for young adults for July 2021. See the video about this artwork
