Privatization of higher education is not a very proposal provided there is a national policy to control quality of education and fees structure adopted by the private institute. The effort to provide new orientation and thrust to the system of higher education have been mostly superficial and half hearted. For providing better employment, private institute should adopt measures. So that the degrees don't get wasted.

The country cannot do away with Privatization of higher education at this stage. Both public and private interference is the need of the hour. The question basically is not of private or public but of good and bad education.

What actually should determine the quality of education is sustained leadership for some period of years. Both public and private education system should have a level playing field.

Hai I am Eswar. In my view our education system should not be privatized. This is because Private institutes are really squeezing the blood of poor people. If and only if our education system is governed our literates rate never increase. Because we may not find as much of stuff in rich people but we can find in poor. If we provide an opportunity to prove themselves the poor really grow very high.

In my view privatization is important, only when it come along with govt. help.

The privatization is best way if:

* The government gives 50% seats to poor students.
* The college gives some free seats to distinction students.
* The govt. Provides seats as well as more fund to minor students and backward students.
* The college gives free seats to all students and take the over all fund by govt.

I think yes it should & why not. When one can invest to buy a car. When one can take loan to build house then why can't one borrow to get educated after all it will be an income generating asset. Privatization doesn't only mean high fee structure and raising standards of living it also means quality education. In fact we should open the windows and look outside the box we've been living in.

So, in my country privatization of Higher Education has pluses and minuses (My country is Ukraine).

Minuses:

1) First at all teachers can demand money for marks even if you are an excellent student.

2) In my country many poor people which haven't money to pay.

Pluses:

1) About system of education. The Goverment doesn't give useful education system but in private centres it can be resolved.

No doubt with privatization literacy rate is increasing but are all degree holder people really literates ? I have seen number of people having degrees not because they deserve them but because they can buy them. No doubt as only 5000 people can get admission in IIT but choosing any private college is short cut and success need hard work which is proved when we people don't get deserving jobs.

It is not necessary that only private institution can provide better education we have such a big list of government institution which provide better than others. The thing that matters here is the value every institution gives to education, doesn't matter it is private or government High fee structure of Private institution only increase financial burden on a poor student's family.

Hello, friends, in my opinion, some points are in favor of privatization and some are in favor or government undertaking. Like every coin as two sides. Privatization may increase the difference between rich and poor students and fee and donation too. But the quality of education could be better. Reservation class will suffer and the higher study will be beyond from am admit.

I think, if all these will be privatized every citizen would not be able to get education, like many people, are below poverty line how will they arrange fees and all and maybe if we'll privatize higher education there will be only business, I'm not saying they won't provide education but somewhere seats will be given to those first who have tight pockets.
