Correct. After 10th grade, you can choose a "stream" (course). You can choose between science, commerce, or humanities. What's worse is that each stream has multiple branches, and biology is not included in all the branches. So if you were to choose computer science branch in the science stream, you will not take any biology classes.
So a vast majority of students would never learn about some very important scientific concepts if this was implemented, but I'm not sure if they reversed this decision or not.
If you didn't want to game on your laptop, would an ARM device not be better for office work? Considering they're quiet and their battery lasts forever.
"Minority" in this context does not mean having a smaller population. Minority means a group of people that have been historically oppressed or persecuted.
Women are a special kind of minority because even though they make up the majority of population worldwide, they've faced oppression for centuries.
Another example would be white people in South Africa—even though they are a minority as a percent, they still aren't a minority because they don't face oppression.
But that doesn't mean it's a tax on the employee. That's like saying sales tax is on the business, when it's actually on the customer.
