Kapil Sibal : Government committed to Higher Education Reform
15:18 IST
The Government is committed towards improving the education system in the country. This wasstated by Shri Kapil Sibal, Union Minister for Human Resource Development today when Prof.Yashpal presented to him the final report of the Committee on Renovation and Rejuvenation of
Higher Education(Prof. Yashpal Committee Report). The Minister underlined that a single daycannot be wasted towards enabling the right for children to be educated. This education mustbe inclusive and with quality he added. Shri Sibal emphasized the three principles of access,equity and excellence which will not be compromised while implementingtheeducationalreformagenda.
The Minister said that he was already aware of the interim report of the Yashpal Committee andthat he was committed to implement the recommendations of the National KnowledgeCommission and the Yashpal Committee which would be pivotal towards the reforms in theeducationalsectorinthecountry.
Shri Sibal said that the Ministry of Human Resource Development would like to place on recorddeep appreciation for the document which is a road map for the education for the future in thecountry. He said that the Yashpal Committee has done extensive dialogue with all stakeholders,and it will thus, be acceptable to the nation.
The joke in Delhis power circles is that the rate at which the Ministry of HumanResources Development (MHRD) is framing cabinet notes and draft bills, many of the
next sessions of Parliament will only be passing legislations on the education sector.
A new minister and a new work culture in the Ministry is right now geared to meet the100-day deadline that ends in the first week of September. The biggest of them all, the
Right to Education, has been passed in both Houses of Parliament. A lot of questions,
many of them genuine, are, however, being raised about the legislation. Putting togetherits nuts and bolts will hit many roadblocks by various interest groups but a big step hasbeen taken.
Though there are many other bigticket changes on the anvil, public interest will be on
weather the class 10 board examination will be made optional and evaluation will shift
to grading system. The answer to both questions is yes, at least for all CBSE-affiliatedschools in the country. Most of the groundwork has been done, public consultation has
already been undertaken been with there being effusive support and a large section of
educationists are rooting for the twin changes. Union HRD MInister Kapil Sibal willannounce it on completion of 100 days. It is bound to have its impact on state boards
who have promised to take a positive view if it clicks in the CBSE (Central Board ofSecondary Education) the body which administers the grade 10 and 12 examinationsof schools.
But it is higher education where the bulk of action is taking place. Sibals promise of
initiating a slew of legislations is on track. The idea of amending the Constitution to set
up a higher education commission and a legislation to create it is already with the PrimeMinisters Office and other relevant ministries. Simultaneously, MHRD has also moved

bills to check educational malpractices by institutions, on educational tribunals, 14
innovation (also called world class) universities, accreditation system and a concept
note on the brain gain policy the reverse of brain drain.
As for cleaning the mess in regulatory bodies, Mr. Kapil Sibal played a key role inensuring that vested groups do not protect top functionaries of the All India Council for
Technical Education (AICTE) from CBI. However, in case of UGC, Sibal seems to
have committed a mistake by setting up two review committees one by the ministry andother by UGC (University Grants Commission) to look into deemed universities.
The question being asked is How can a committee of UGC that advised the ministry
to give deemed status to certain institutions now find fault with the same institutes?Also, why is the ministrys review committee not making a physical verification of
claims made by deemed universities? Its a big let down in Mr. Sibals first 100 days.
HITS
Right to Education Bill passed in both Houses of Parliament
Making Class X board examinations optional A new regulatory body to oversee higher education
MISSES
Review of deemed universities not handled well
A thorough probe into doling out deemed status not done
Not enough attention paid to National Council for Teacher Education
CHALLENGES
Implementing the Right to Education and ensuring private schools abide by its
provisions
Cleaning mess in regulatory bodies like UGC, AICTE
Gross Enrolment Ratio in both elementary and higher education should increase

(CABE) Meeting here today.
The Minister underlined expansion, inclusion and excellence as the three underlying
principles for educational reforms. Shri Sibal particularly called for collaboration from
State Governments with regard to the Right to Education. He pointed out thatRs.1,50,000/- crore would be required for implementing the RTE in the country. It is
perceived that there will be a shortfall of Rs.60,000/- crore as regards this massive
exercise, which will have to be addressed he said.
Shri Sibal pointed out that in order to provide equal opportunity to all students trying
for professional courses, a core curriculum in Maths and Science needs to beformulated. He informed the Members of the Meeting that in a recent Meeting,
COBSE, has endorsed the framing of this core curriculum in Maths and Science and a
Committee of COBSE has been constituted to draft the outlines of this curriculum in
two months. Shri Sibal emphasized that diversity in education was to be respected and
there was no intent of having a single board in the country.
With regard to higher education Shri Sibal, in his address, indicated the reforms beingmooted in this sector. He said that his Ministry was in the process of formulating the
structure for an overarching body for higher education that would be responsible for
higher education policy.
He said that some of the proposals for higher education included complete autonomy touniversities for devising courses, cross fertilization of courses, research oriented
universities etc. He also said that he was open to the idea of Indian universities
collaborating with foreign universities or with the corporate sector. He pointed out that
the corporate sector was showing increasing interest in education as they require trainedmanpower.
The HRD Minister stated that he is in the process of dialogue for the creation of a
Central Madrasa Board. He clarified that he did not want to interfere at all with
religious education. But he emphasized that he wanted to empower minorities with
equivalence of Board exams so that they could move into the university system and beeligible for jobs. He also underlined commitment towards the Schedule Castes,
Scheduled Tribes, Minorities, the differently abled, and other disadvantaged sections
for which the same opportunity as the rest of the children of the country must beprovided.
The Union Minister for Rural Development and Panchayati Raj Shri C.P. Joshi, theUnion Minister for Labour & Employment, Shri Mallikarjun Kharge, Union Minister of
