Educational reform

Educational reform in India is still nascent, and diverting funds meant for subsidising higher education will affect the sector's overall performance.

Though India is becoming a leading knowledge processing outsourcing destination, the ratio of doctors, engineers, scientists and professors is below the world average.

Therefore, at the primary and secondary levels to ensure quality education focus must on the dropout ratio, efficiency of faculty and good pay scales.
