Expert Reviews

Mr. Utpal Ghosh _CEO and President UPES

“I would like to congratulate Mr. Jaitley and P.M Modi’s Govt. to present a budget that has a strong focus on emerging technologies and the education sector. Machine learning, artificial intelligence, robotics, big data, quantum communication etc. are going to drive future jobs and hence a national programme catering to these disciplines is a welcome initiative. District Wise Strategy to improve the quality of education and achieving standard learning outcomes based on the results of the National Achievement Survey, for me, is a path-breaking announcement, made for the first time. Usually, one gets to read about such initiatives in education policies and not in budget speeches. New medical colleges, planning & architecture schools and a special railway university are steps in the right direction. Overall, I am confident that initiatives announced for the education sector will prove immensely beneficial for our school and college going students.”

This paradigm shift will increase literacy rates, across the country, ensuring that quality education is available for all.
