The Outcomes of High Population and Rich Cultural Difference among the School Students in Metropolitan, Delhi

Abstract

It is very fascinating to explore the effect of high population and rich cultural 
differences in a Metropolitan city like Delhi. Delhi in the true sense is a mini-India, where the 
different sections of people live together in harmony.  It is very important to explore whether a 
high population leads to a scarcity of resources or not. The cultural differences make the Delhi 
Classroom, a typical ground of experimentation not among the students but among the teachers 
as well as among other stakeholders from every corner of the world. The high student-teacher 
ratio as present across the world platform, poses several challenges to the teachers, which leads 
adaptation of special strategies to tackle the problem. The weakness arises due to various issues 
as a function of the high population is overcome by rich cultural differences present in Delhi 
city. The Delhi school classroom provides a role model to all the schools across India. How the 
people in Delhi celebrate festivals with each other and how these practices of societies are 
reflected in the classroom, is also a matter of great achievement. The classrooms in Delhi not 
only have differences in terms of social aspects but also in terms of the economic status of the 
students. Due to high population density, a rich social fabric helps the students to build up their 
personality in terms of true Indian Citizens. The celebration of festivals of different communities 
in society by the parents as well as by the students among their friends helps to build a strong 
bonding among different sections of society. The cultural difference which arises as a result of 
the high population in Delhi, also helps the teachers to understand the culture of other states and 
this helps them to shape their teaching methodology as per the psychological mindset of the 
students in the class. The main focus is to take advantage of a high population with rich cultural 
strength and not to divert attention to the problems which are associated with the high 
population. The different stakeholders must have to come up with synchronized policies with an 
approved law where everyone person of India has opportunities to explore their true potential 
and ultimately give a contribution to the development of Indian society. The rich cultural 
strength must be utilized with a positive mindset. Despite the high student-teacher ratio, ample 
opportunities must be created by the teachers to enrich the classroom with good classroom 
practices. The outcome of the study confirms that the rich cultural differences provide 
opportunities for the students to explore their true potential as well as provide a challenging platform for the teachers to act upon the new strategies for the development of the students as well as the for the development of Indian society.
