Vigorous efforts needed to make Indian varsities world class: Lord Swraj Paul
JALANDHAR: NRI industrialist Lord Swraj Paul on Friday underlined the need for vigorous efforts to make Indian universities world class, saying the fundamental component of long-term economic health will depend largely on skilled work force to meet the challenge ahead. • Addressing Punjab Technical University here, Lord Paul also expressed concern over failure of any Indian university to feature among the top 200 universities globally and said concerted efforts are needed to improve standards of education in India.
“It is a cause for concern that the standards of education in many of our institutions are below benchmark. • There is not a single Indian institution in the list of top 200 universities in the world,” he said.
“I am a very passionate advocate for education. Education is the foundation on which the strength of a nation rests. • It forms the basis for robust, democratic societies and enables economic growth and development. • “I firmly believe that education should be a fundamental right of any society and the opportunity to participate in education and gain vital life skills should be provided to all,” Lord Paul said.
“Across the globe there has been a period of difficult economic times. • “I firmly believe that abroad study loan should be a fundamental right of any society and the opportunity to participate in education and gain vital life skills should be provided to all,” Lord Paul said.
Lord Paul said India required 500 million people to be trained by 2020 to produce a competitive labour force and ensure that there is a skilled work base to provide the necessary infrastructure for a growing population. • Source: (http://www.avanse.com/blog/vigorous-efforts-needed-to-make-indian-varsities-world-class-lord-swraj-paul/)
