However focusing on higher education does not mean I am belittling the need of primary education.
Both are relevant and both have importance if country has to be changed holistically.
In coming paragraph we will be debating the difference between higher education and primary education.
How both are different and one can’t replace each other. Later we talk about issues and challenges related to Higher Education only.
Answer:
Issues with Higher Education in India
Teaching Quality
The first issue that higher education in India is facing is decreasing teaching quality. Teachers are not well trained and qualified for the job they are assigned to.
Some colleges recruit young graduates as professors who have no experience or knowledge. So this is a big problem.
Financing
Financing is also an issue with higher education in India. Yes India is already spending very much on higher education and it can’t spend more.
However if the quality of higher education has to be improved then more financing is needed.j
Privatization
Privatization of higher education is the way to go. However just privatization is not going to solve the problem.
You need to foster the culture of creativity, imagination and learning new skills in young students.
Quota System
Debating quota system is very controversial. But if you are being honest then I must tell you quota is not good for the quality of higher education.
Talent and merit is more important than your identity. However quota system is still a challenge.
Political Factor
Political influence is also a bad thing and an issue with higher education. Governing bodies do not want any political influence or interference in their affairs.
Moral Issues
Younger generation is not interested in serving their country and they are more interested in just taking up a job and a hefty pay package.
