In the context of value education, the national policy on education, 1986 (revised 1992) observed, "The growing concern over the erosion of essential values and an increasing cynicism in society has brought to focus the need for readjustments in the curriculum in order to make education a forceful tool for cultivation of social and moral values". In our culturally plural society, education should foster universal and eternal values oriented towards the unity and integration of our people. The programme of action, 1986 (1992) also suggested for establishing Institutes of Moral Education both at the centre and state levels for promoting moral values of integrity, truth, devotion, loyalty etc.
