Dr. Sadgopal presented an analysis that suggests that the neo-liberal education policies compromise on some of the earlier ideas on primary education laid down in the constitution. Dr. Sadgopal suggests that the notions of decentralization; and doing away with land acquisition controls arise out of forces that seek to undermine the Indian state; and that the market-based outlook that transforms the ministry of education to the ministry of human-resources - reduces the human being to a resource.
Dr. Sadgopal envisages political struggles - by the Dalits, by Muslims and by women as forces that will humanize the oppressors.
