As IIT's and IIM's are premier institutes in india, number of them should always remain limited to maintain standard. And government should concentrate towards primary and secondary education. Because if we will be sucsessful making education system strong on core lewel automatically standardds for IIT's IIM will increase.
And government should think on making layer of secondary universities as per the standard of IIT's and IIM's. By this we will be able to provide higher education to as many qualified students as we can and at the same time we can maintain the world class standard of our IIT's and IIM's. |

| DEAR, Friend I would like to ask you all a simple question what you will do if you have crores of rupee but you don't have any market to invest or expend. And the second scenario you don't have one rupee and your expenditure is rs 100. In the same way increasing either number of iit, iim or spending money will not be the answer. But a balanced approach should be taken so that increment in any one field is fruitful, for example if we have more number of students with strong base of basic education then we need to increase seat in higher education institutions. If we go on increasing seats in iit, iim and don't have students with strong base with basic education then this higher institution are bound to fall on its feet. |

| According to my view seates should be increased, because in order to get a seat in IIT, there is only two chance. And students loss their seat because of even 1 or 2 marks. It is also necessary to make primary school very tridious because they are the base. But if we talk about today education, there are many institute opened to provide entrance exam education. So seates should be increased. So that students who are so intelligent and bring our India still develop to developed. They should be provided. |

The government had started allocating a part of the budget for funding the iim's and iit's which started 50 years back. The moot agenda is whether it is applicable now. When a large section of the country is suffering from unemployment and lack of the growth of the manufacturing sector, the government should think twice before spending the tax payers money on these institutions. Most of the iim grads settle abroad without contributing much to the development of the country. So whats the point in wasting the tax payers money on those. If the point of improving the structure, faculty and facility of the iims and iits surface the government should look upon to the alumni. I mean when will be the such great alumni associations of the iits and iims come to any use. It should be also kept in mind that other top b schools like Symbiosis University, Narsee monjee, Vinod gupta school of management and several other privately funded or trustee funded institutions are at per excellence with the iim's. These schools are churning out excellence each year and with out any government funding.
It is a matter of utilizing the tax payers hard earned money into something that would benefit the the tax payer in return. There are a whole lot of issues in India which needs tremendous funding, rather than the iit's and iim's. I think the government should realize this more than anything else. |

I think that Government should be more concerned towards Primary Education, because India's Literacy rate is not good. Moreover, primary education is the child's first step towards education, he is not directly admitted into IIT's or IIM's by his birth. There are many children in Villages who are not getting proper education and this is the reason why we are still counted in developing Countries.
A good primary Education is more important for building the whole career of a Person.

| According to my point of view Government should more focuses on primary education. we can say that primary education is a root of tree. if a tree's root will not strong how will it grow. Elementary education should be given the highest priority because this is the children’s stepping-stone for them to pursue higher goals. If they are able to undergo their elementary education, there will have a great probability that they will continue up to high school or even a higher degree. Remember that your journey to a thousand miles can begin with your first step. |

| Hi in my view preference of iit, s/iim, s is better than to give the preference of primary education, because it is the basic of each and every person or a child. After the completion of our primary education we will be eligible to the iit/iim. If there is no quality in primary education we cannot produce a better educated person. So, first preference will be given to primary education than iit/iim. |

To increase our literacy rate we must pay attention on primary education instead of IIT's or IIM's, because student that are studing in IIT's or IIM's are already very well educated. |

Hi everybody.
Talking about setting up more IITs and IIMs, its not the solution cause we are compromising with quality, why not rather provide better resource in previously established IITs and IIMs so that we can compete with MIT, Cambridge.
Now our country has not produced any great research and invention in last 2 decades, why is it happening? I think here comes the role of primary and secondary education, we need to improve our primary and secondary education, creativity in a child remains till 14 so if we want that creativity be utilized then we have to make great reforms in primary and secondary level education.
I believe the "spirit of India lives in village", the children their have much curiosity, much eagerness to learn and if we will provide good primary education to them then definitely will produce next J C BOSE, RAMANUJAN, C V RAMAN. |

I have a moderate opinion in respect of this topic, so I would say that we can not compare IIT/IIM with primary education. This is because the scope of primary education is very vast while IIT/IIM are concerned with a small group of people in India. So I would say that the ultimate concern of government is to develop India and these both are necessary for the growth of India, so govt. Should work for development of both the fields of education.
I would not directly say that govt should stop financing to IIT/IIM but would say that most of the people going for these institutes are self capable, so govt. Should make them self financed. Why primary education is to be developed is also man imp. Question because a child does not join IIT/IIM from his birth. He first gets primary edu. & then on the basis of his capability he reaches to IIT/IIM, so unless the quality of primary education is developed there is no meaning of IIT/IIM.
The other thing why IIT/IIM is needed is also need to be understood. Our India is still a developing country plus we have the largest democracy system in the world so to run them we need smart policy makers and brains which can be provided only by quality education of IIT/IIM.
So I conclude the concern of govt. Should be balanced development of both the fields of education. |

| As per my suggestion, IITs and IIMs must be increased because they produce qualified youth who in turn will help our country. Private colleges are increasing at a rapid rate where education level is deplorable. Today the competition has increased a lot but due to the lack of seats and foundation of time i.e. age, students ultimately choose private colleges. This spoils their career and brings down the quality of engineers and MBAs produced in the country. Therefore for a developing country like India it is the need of the hour. If the point of good lecturers arises, then if good colleges are more, obviously they will give good teachers to the country. |

Lets ask ourself one question why are we prefering iit or iims? it is because of the the quality education, placements they offer. It is the quality and brand name that is attracting us. I feel there are enough colleges in our country and now lets focus on the quatity of educatn and not on quantity.
One most imp thing is Primary education is very very important and more money should be spent on them. |

| Hello friends I am Prashant Dhakate. The creation of more and more IIT's and IIM's are now in line with the demand of the present scenario where quality education is getting diminished. The rise of many private colleges have hampered quality of bachelors coming out. I fully support the idea of creation of new IIT's and IIM's if they are to maintain the same standard or follow the lineage of sister IIT's and IIM's and not like be the condition of many private colleges where students take admission because they don't have any other option due to their poor performance in qualifying tests. In India lakhs of engineer pass every year but still there is dearth of quality education. Actually quality education in quantity is what we require. |

| Hello friends this is shyamal solanki. In my opinion there is simultaneous requirement for both quality education at primary level as well as at the higher level. As primary education has become right to education under art. 21 it has now become the duty of govt to provide primary edu. To every child of India. Unless and until there is good primary educational facilities available what is meaning of making more and more iits and IIMS. But we should also keep one thing in mind that India is now growing at 8% gdp rate and one of the major reasons for this is that the industries have grown very fast rate which requires a good amount of skilled manpower who can run them in organized and profitable way so that this growth can be maintained. And generate this manpower we need institutions which are capable enough in terms of facilities, infrastructure ect. And we all know the standard which is maintained by the institutes like IITs and IIMS. So there is requirement to make more IITs and IIMs. |

In my opinion number of IIT and IIM shouldn't increase. Government should concentrate on the improvement of Primary/secondary level education. Because if our base is not strong then how our building would be strong. If our primary/secondary level education are not up to mark then students can't put themselves according to the level of IIT and IIM.
If government want to do at higher education level. It can improve other colleges and make them in the category of iim and iit. |

| Hello friends, this is himanshu & I think the government must increase the number of iits and iims as nowadays the number of students are nearly 4-5 times as compared to previous ten years. So obviously the talented students also increased but some of them not qualify the exam as seats are less and take admission in other college which are not giving any exposure as compared to iit and iim. The number must increase as the ratio increases. Otherwise we can loose some talent required for our country and even world. So the government must increase the no. |

Hello friends,
First thing I wanna to say that a building can not build on the weak foundation, our government is spending lots of money every year for primary and secondary education system but the condition of primary schools are still miserable because of some.
Currupted politician, they divides the government funds among them. Our higher education system is one of the most renowned education system all over the world, every year we are producing hundreds of technical and management intellectuals. Increasing the no. Of IIT and IIMs is totally depends upon government policy whether government have enough found or not?
But there is a need to take special care of primary education system. |

I feel there should be a fewmore IIT, S AND IIMS in the country as well Govt should spend more money on Primary and secondary education. If we see the statistics the growing population'demand for the primary and secondary education is not met by the Govt. It reflects our country's literacy rate of 64% still there are people who are in need of primary education. Any nations development is mainly depending on the quality of the population. There should be more primary and secondary schools at the convenience of the people on the basis of the population of the area.
Govt should spend more money and should come forward regulations to stop the school dropouts, and the child labour shall be curbed completely in the nation. The other side quality of education as per the international standards is being cultivated in the students by the IITs and IIMs, we see in many of the students of these institute are taken away by the MNC's. Hence, there should be proper allocation of funds by the govt towards primary education and the premier institutes. |

| Instead of increasing the number of IITs and IIMs our government can take steps to increase the standard of other government colleges. Nowadays everybody wants to join either IIT or IIM or IISc or NIT because other institutions are not that good. If the government increases the numbers of premier institution, then the standard of these institutions will not be as good as it is instead the standard will be worse. |

Hello! This is MOHIT SALECHA, & I think that government should use money on the primary & secondary education as it is the base of any person, without base how anyone think to build the building. If the base is weak the full structure will not grow in the proper manner.
If the person is not able to qualify the entrance test of IIT's or IIM's then what is the meaning of establishing them, they are just useless for everyone, no one can get benefit by that.
So, instead of moving forward government also see what they leave behind. |

| A good primary education is very important for building the whole career of any person. In early age of any person it is easy to enhance his/her interest in a particular area or subject. If the person has not taken a good primary education it may change his/her whole life it may also happen that he/she is not able to even participate in the entrance examination of the top level institutes like IITs or IIMs. If we analyse the present situation of primary or secondary education in India we can say that there is a firm need to assist it. |

Increasing of these will result in many diplomat and the standard of the student will also increase. Since our student don't have much stuff in education increasing of these will result in tremendous improvement. |
