Brain drain (B.D)from India continues unabated
by mallaiah anchoori on Apr 06, 2008 11:56 AM

Except for the few Govt run institutions like IITS and IIMs and a handful universities which filter and make admissions,most of the educational institutions do not have adequate infrastructure and competent teaching faculty for the courses they offer.Education,supposedly a noble profession,has been,of late reduced to business with grant of admissions by collecting exorbitant capitation and tution fees by the unscrupulous private managements who awfully fail to provide even basic facilities needed for teacher or taught.Instances like that of a private medical management which tried to hoodwink the approving authorities by producing fake paramedical staff ,fake doctors as also fake patients to get their "venture "okayed"are still in people's green memory.The mushroom growth of private colleges indiscriminately permitted by the corrupt govt/s has rendered the degrees obtained from them virtually worthless and precisely for this reason some of them have no takers;seats remain vacant throughout the academic year.The increasing neo-rich and the upcoming affluent upper middle class, with their affordability, naturally crave for quality education out side the country & prefer to send their children for abroad studies which have good demand in employment market too.It is not that education standards are high abroad;they are,unlike Russian medical degrees are not recognised even by India,are certainly better with positive prospects of jobs also as in USA.Hence B.D.
