Part 5: 7) But do we have specialized trained engineers and skilled labour for making # Make in India successful, if substandard institutes produce such poor quality of engineers, and there is no strict quality check done by UGC and AICTE, there will be a huge shortfall of skilled labour and engineers. 8) India needs a big overhaul of its education system specially in technical education, otherwise our students and young generation will be plagued with problems like umemployment, shame,failure

Part 4: 6) As core branches of engineering are dying a slow death, a time will come when India will face a severe crunch of electronics,communication, mechanical engineers. 7) Manufacturing and Research/Development must be done in India, as India has just become a service Industry. We must prove to the world that we are more than just call centers and BPO's. Thanks to our Prime Minister, for his initiatives like #Make in India, # Digital India, if this all is successful, it will create jobs.

Experts reviewing college standards simply follow either the official version of information given by College authorities or what they observe (Lab equipment etc). They must also have anonymous but detailed interviews with students at different levels of accomplishments access the actual ground realities of level of Teaching in a college. Without this Sincere and Detailed effort, the Gap between Rating Vs Reality will remain and India will remain a Laggard at the International level

Dear Sir Please save our planet / country for future generation Waste from a house can be broadly divided in to two categories – dry waste and wet waste. Both need to be disposed and recycled differently. Wet can be used for producing energy and bio soil. On the other hand, dry waste and it can be recycled The local municipal corporation & contractors are not following this system. So there should be a law or strict guideline Thanks Gajendra K Vaishnav Bhayander, mumbai.

Part 3: 4) Because of such problems, Institutes are producing Illiterate engineers every year, and eventually students remain unemployed. 5) There are no jobs available for engineers in core technical areas such as Electronics and Communication, Mechanical etc. These mother branches are dying a slow death, as students are no more interested to study such subjects, as there are not many jobs for such sectors. Engineers are surviving thanks to software industry in India.

Most private colleges all over the country have very poor teaching standards, even though they may have a good curriculum (on paper). Most students hardly use textbooks of international repute (eg. those prescribed in IITs,USA, UK). The text lack deep explanation of concepts and are more like study guides based on previous years' question papers. To compensate, colleges have 3 week preparatory leave prior to exams. Still by 4th year only 20% of original batch pass in all courses.

Referring to my earlier comment please concentrate on how science can be made easier to understand by common man. How can we make common man to understand or at-least have some basic grounding in science and mathematics. If a student comes home with some mathematical doubt at-least his parents should be able to clear them. Prof yash pal after launching of gagan said he understood how the GPS system works but there was no forum on which he/or anyone was given an opportunity to explain.

Part 2: 1) Education is no more a noble profession and its just a money minting business for the politicians and the super rich. Every nook and corner of the country is filled with such substandard institutes. 2) UGC and AICTE have failed to keep a check on this, because of which our students are suffering with unemployment and shame. 3) There are no labs and trained faculty, no equipments, no books, zero research, no motivation for students, no strict criteria for admissions.

AICTE should be strengthened. I don't feel AICTE is a problem. The problem of low quality is because of inadequate schooling. I teach at an engineering college. I know the frustration of the students and teachers like us. We are curious. We want to learn but no one to guide or inspire confidence. Science popularizers are missing in this vast country. People like sam pitroda, prof yash pal are not celebrated enough. Modiji please restart a few programs like "turning point" again.

The large number of Low Quality Technical institutes in India represent a significant capital investment. Instead of closing them such institutions should be gradually upgraded or diversified through joint participation of government over a 5-10 year period.It is important to realize that poor education ultimately affects the well being of a Nation - it has adverse impact on Technical, Commercial and Social sectors, ultimately affecting the Nation.
