He contended that the only panacea for the evil rampant in the society is education. The lecture tended to be an interactive one in which the teachers present expressed their doubts and dilemmas, which the host professor alleviated cogently. He contended that in spite of tremendous development in audio-visual teaching aids, educational search tools, surplus reading material on the internet, the huge impact of social media etc, the indispensible role of the teacher in guiding and building a student can never be negated. He also suggested certain performance indicators for the teachers by which they can regularly assess their teaching efficiency and accountability.
