There are many education systems in India. There's a central one, but each state has its own.
Indians at every economic level (except maybe the very top) value STEM education above everything else.

Remove the ability to get well paying engineering/medicine jobs from the equation and they’ll treat STEM education with the same disdain they have for commerce, or worse, humanities.
There is very little real appreciation of education. Only its byproducts, namely, jobs.
Second sentence disagrees with the first sentence.
> I read an internet comment that said "They don’t value STEM education. They value they jobs and prestige STEM education can get them." The second sentence seems to contradict the first. Can you explain if it does?
And it gave quite a good explanation. If you'd like I can share the chat, but perhaps you'd like to give it a shot yourself?
