INDIA: Higher education enrolment could reach 15%
25.05.2010
The increased focus on higher education in India is yielding dividends. The 11th Plan's ambitious aim to increase enrolment in higher education to 15% could be achievable. At the end of 10th Plan in 2006 it was 10.12%, reports The Times of India.
University Grants Commission chairman Sukhadeo Thorat said last week: "There could be an increase of 3% in the number of students opting for higher education since 2006. This is an estimate and we are yet to assess the actual rise," he stated. Even as he was buoyant about meeting the target, Thorat linked it to the need for increased allocations from state governments to match larger funds universities are getting, owing to an increased allocation to higher education in the 11th Plan. "We are spending hugely, which should be matched by the state governments so that the goal is effectively achieved," he said.
