New National Education Policy-2016 draft has recently been
made available to public for inputs.<br>
This whole draft does not refer Free and Open Source Software
even once !<br>
<br>
Free Software is the real future of tomorrow. Without Free
Software, Education Policy is meaningless.<br>
Friends, this new policy draft clearly indicates that
Education and in turn the whole Country will continue to be
slave of Microsoft if we don't act immediately.<br>
<br>
We must hang together and pressurize MHRD to make FOSS
mandatory in Education. This must be done before 31st July
2016, as this is the last date given by MHRD to accept
suggestions of citizens about NEP-2016.<br>
Please sign the petition before 31st July 2016 and save our
country :<br>

Kindly share this message as early as possible with maximum

Arrg! I just went to sign and realised it's an advert for BOSS
Linux :(<br>
<br>
I think you'll do better in terms of engaging other FOSS projects
and community if the petition and video are about FOSS rather than
a single product.<br>
<br>
Perhaps we can come up with a video that celebrates Indian FOSS
projects such as ours or GnuKhata?<br>
