 Subodh Kant SahayMinister of Tourism, Government of IndiaThe Indian civilization has made many seminal contributions in education to the world. The Nalanda University, which existed almost 2000 years ago, is still regarded by the historians as one of the world’s first great universities. Modern India must work hard to recapture the greatness that was once there in our education system. We have to create many new world class universities for educating our youth. |

 Sudhir K JainDirector, IIT Gandhi Nagar In India, we are very shy of recognising excellence. We need to become bolder in identifying talent. The good work being done in the education sector by people in the country needs to be recognised and awarded. The system of awarding talent has to be fair and transparent. |
 Dr RSK Lakhshmana PrabhuManaging Director, PSNA College of Engineering Technology  Indian institutions are not there in the top 200 position of any of the survey, despite the fact that the country is home to large number of universities and millions of students. Research publication and patent filing is not up to the mark. There is an urgent need for us to develop a new model for fostering creativity and research. The system has to be revolutionised, a drastic change is required. Research activities can enhance the image of the college or university. It is right time to think about having innovations in our universities. |

Great advances in education had been made in the times of Ashoka and Buddha. In this modern day and age, it is important to find out the reasons that why our children receive better education We need more innovation in the education sector. It is only through innovation that we can improve the state of our education. |
