Pre-budget expectations
Everytime, there are experts telling the government to increase outlays to education, reduce fiscal deficit, grant more tax holidays to new age industries like IT, insurance and so on. I will do none of that. I will just reproduce what Ninad Karpe, CEO & MD of Aptech Limited has to say about his pre-budget expectations…
“Indian education and training sector has not received the attention it deserves. Hopefully, the Budget will ensure the following 3Ps for education sector: Participation: private players should be allowed to participate and contribute to this sector in a more unfettered manner
Performance: quality provided to the students needs to improve and should be monitored especially in state managed education institutions
Proportion: larger amount of money from the Budget needs to be allocated, as it is really an investment in India’s future
If these simple steps are taken, it will have a Domino effect on the entire education and training industry”.
Is finance minister Pranab Mukherjee reading this?
