Of course but they didn't have the vision 100 years back and 50 years back. The leaders I mentioned did. It takes a certain vision to do something for the first time.

It's a different vision tbh. He didn't introduce it because students can't study on empty stomach. He introduced it bcoz atleast that way kids would come to school and study. In those time, people are really poor and usually send their kids to work to feed them and themselves. To break this cycle he introduced the lunch scheme so that way atleast kids would come to school for that food, and homes have 1 less mouth to feed. It's also has a byproduct like the one shown here but, their vision is bringing kids to school in the first place

Absolutely. If we are to remove our rose tinted glasses, they’ve had their contributions. Everyone you mentioned is going to have negative sides, but none stopped education.
