At the recently held "The EduMeet 2018 & Education Excellence Awards" at Hyatt Regency, Kolkata' organized by ASSOCHAM India, Dr. Jitendra K. Das, Director at FORE School of Management, New Delhi, referring to autonomy and regulations in higher education said that Higher education beyond K12 level, should have limited regulations and governance.
Talking on futurism of education and the need of a complete disruption in existing education system, Dr. Das said, "Why should the autonomy and set of regulatory guidelines be different for Government-run institutions compared to the private ones when the output and delivery parameters i.e. offering quality education, great learning experience and imparting employability skills to the students, are same for both types of institutes."
Incidentally, the seats offered by government institutes in engineering or MBA courses is less than 15% of the total graduating students opting for the courses. Dr. Das, referring to the grants, most of it which goes to the government run institutions said, "The 'Efficiency - Delivery - capacity building' cannot be compromised or differentiated."
