Apey Lokaya for students' skills and thoughts
In this society with the developing technology, children haven't
enough time to devote their mind and skills to the Arts. Most of
students don't like to write poems, essays or do things like paintings.
This is simply because of the artificial system called competition is
trying to make them as robots.
