This Memorundum was submitted to Coimbatore District Collector Mr.P.Umanath I.A.S. On October 26 in Coimbatore,Tamilnadu..

Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO) strives for the educational upliftment and moral development of the students in India.

SIO believes that education and morality are the two eyes of the students which make him live with dignity and honour.

Class rooms are the places where future leaders are motivated and moulded. But present day students are distracted by the media and external things. Colleges play a vital role in preparing the students for the reconstruction of society. Some of the colleges fail to be the role model for the students. Hence there occur problems for the whole society.

With the increasing privatization of higher education in India, academic institutions in India have been experiencing increasing ragging-related excesses. A report from 2007 highlights 42 instances of physical injury, and reports on ten deaths purportedly the result of ragging in India.

The present education system has some basic flaws. It has merely reduced to assimilation of information and vomitting of the same during exams. It doesn't focus on creating humanitarian values in students.

SIO urges the goverment to Reshape Our Educational System..
Government Should Redesign Our Educational System which is also teach about Social
Responsibility,Morality & Sprituality to Students.
SIO believes that education needs to possess certain human values to create a ethical society.

SIO conducts anti-ragging forum in many colleges to create awareness among the students regarding ragging. Pamphlets and folders are distributed such anti ragging booth should be formed inside the campuses where awareness can be created for the whole academic year.

SIO works for these educational problems and wanted to create a creative campus in which morality plays vital role.

SIO will focus on changing the basic education system to make it more value-based by way of open houses, face to face debates, panel discussion etc. Each campus will also hold inter-faith dialogues among students.
