Some Aspects of Liberalization of Technical Education in India:A call of the Day

Abstract

This paper emphasizes that the education system of right type should be in right hands. It has also presented the state-of-the-art and has attempted to point out the causes of its today's limited utility. It has been proposed that the Government should exercise the least control over the general education in general, and over the Technical and Management Education in particular. Liberalization (privatization) of Technical and Management Education, it is argued, can ameliorate the situation to a large extent provided that a healthy attitude is developed in the society, and that it is in the hands of worthy people. Private agencies, thus, can help promote so badly needed competitiveness at international level through proper technical manpower planning and development.
