If the education system fails, the whole generation will be lost, he added.

The Minister further appealed to all to cooperate with the Government initiatives to promote education in the State.

Obstructions and agitations by students' and teachers' organisations have been hampering teaching and learning processes of the schools and colleges.

Such unwanted activities should be stopped, he added.
