"The government's education expenditure as a percentage of GDP is
about 5% and the consumption trends predict that the urban Indian is
spending 9% of his wallet on education while the rural consumer spends
only 6%. In view of huge requirements of infrastructure and manpower
in the field, even if the government takes up the supply challenge,
the time frame will exceed the youthfulness of our population. The

recognizes the need to think more boldly and broadly on how to
