“I believe our Government has given education its due. We have expanded access to education as never before,” said Prime Minister Manmohan Singh while addressing the conference of Vice Chancellors of Central Universities at Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi in February.

Just a few months later, in June, the President expressed his disappointment at the state of higher education in the country when he spoke at the eighth convocation of the Rajiv Gandhi Technological University in Bhopal, clearly indicating that enough had not been done or achieved in the field of higher education.
