The HRD Ministry has once again touched the sensitive issue of quality in the higher education sector in the country. The ministry claims that in the next three years all the higher education institutions in the country will have to get accreditation and grading done. This shall be carried out by Government agencies agencies to enable people to decide an institution based on the quality parameters.
Presently accreditation is optional and only 20% of the colleges in India go for it. UGC will issue a notification in the next three months making grading compulsory for all colleges. The commission may also stop funding colleges that don’t follow these guidelines. What about the private colleges which don’t give a damn about UGC?
For statistics: Currently only 24% of 18,000 colleges and 30% of 417 universities in the country are accredited. Out of these only 9% of colleges and 30% of universities have received A grade.
I have a strong feeling that once accreditation becomes necessary it will be difficult to disable the so called government agencies from the sugar coated devil corruption.
