Abstract :

Education is the conscious and deliberate process in which one personality acts upon another in alone their order to modify the development of the other by the communication and manipulation of knowledge. Our system of education leads to the development of the mind, body and soul. Value education is an important part of education. By value education we refer to planned educational action aimed at the development of proper attitudes, values, emotions and character in the learners. On the other hand, value education is a process of helping the individuals to think freely and critically and act responsibly and with courage and conviction.
