Dear Sirs,
It may prove to be prudent to focus resources on core goals, shifting funds to activities that truly drive growth, well in advance of the crisis.

Subject: RE: [MTC Global] Finally, India will produce fewer lousy engineers every year
No credit goes to AICTE for this move. It is a natural process of elimination in light of supply being more than the demand and value for money perceived by the students. Expecting any quality improvement after reduction of seats will be disappointing. We are still far away from a competitive spirit based on the quality. It will perhaps take few more years before crisis of survival reaches its peak and process of quality education becomes a necessity for every institution.

Subject: [MTC Global] Finally, India will produce fewer lousy engineers every year
India’s epidemic of lousy engineering colleges, which churned out millions of substandard engineers, may finally be ending.
The country’s technical education regulator, All India Council for Technical Education, is planning to reduce over 600,000 engineering seats in colleges across India.
“We would like to bring it (engineering seats) down to between 10 lakh and 11 lakh (one million and 1.1 million) from a little over 16.7 lakh now,” Anil Sahasrabudhe, chairman of the AICTE, told the Mint newspaper.
The dismal quality of education at many of the country’s existing engineering colleges is one of the main reasons behind AICTE’s decision. The regulatory body plans to close down certain colleges and reduce the number seats in some others over the next few years.
“It is the colleges that are coming forward for closure. We are facilitating closure if the colleges are not able to manage with hardly 20-30% seats filled because these colleges become non-viable,” Sahasrabudhe told Quartz in an email.
This year alone, about 556 engineering courses or departments across colleges in India have closed down, according to AICTE.
