Man is a social being, who lives and conducts his activities in social relationship. He has adapted to communicate and express himself, to exchange ideas and thoughts, and has built up very complex social structures like families, communities, nations or the Global world. Their interpersonal relationship and interactions have created values, cultures and social norms which form the basis of human society. The advancement of Science and Technology, Globalization, Urbanization, Privatization and Industrialization has brought about drastic change in the society. Among the adolescents there are increased competitions on studies, high mental pressure, lack of jobs, deteriorating family values, suicide and disturbances in the social, physical, emotional and psychological development (Kumar, 2017). These adverse issues later limit their potentials and even cause social problems such as smoking, alcoholism, drug abuse and anti-social activities. In this prevailing world, an individual needs to acquire numerous skills to succeed. Now the pace of change of human civilization is so rapid that one has to be equipped with the right knowledge, skills and the right attitudes to meet the challenges in life. It is the need of the hour to bring about an educational reform to overcome these challenges and transform the students into intelligent, social and well-adjusted citizens. Education should develop skills in the young generation which will provide solutions to the above problems. A well balanced life skills education programme is essential to develop the basic capabilities of students and to nurture their abilities to deal with the changing needs of the society and the world (Prajapati et al., 2017.
