It’s
quality that matters in education: “We live in the information age, the students are
tech-savvy, and knowledge is power. And we should equip our children with
this power. Comprehensive information should be made available to the
children to make their future bright. Therefore, the need of the hour is
quality education. The steep fall in the quality of teaching and research in
our colleges and universities has resulted in the decline of the quality of
our education. The number of colleges and universities has not increased over
the years and has not kept pace with the increase in population”..………… |
