Should the Government Set-up More IITs and IIMs, OR should it be use the Money for Primary & Secondary Education?

Hii friends.

If we really want to get better India then first we should concentrate on quality not on quantity (no.of schools, colleges). In our country we have sufficient number of school at every place. We should concentrates on this school and college. First government should invest for improve the facility like sports, cultural, technical in the existing schools and colleges.

I think new IITS or IIMS which have been open before 2-3 years is also not required we can easily increase the strength of students in existing IITS because every iits have sufficient area to develop the hostels, academics for new seat admissions.

After thinking on it we should develop both primary & secondary education schools or higher studies colleges equally because both are related to each other. Proper development is not possible if we miss one between both.

So in my views first we should concentrate on existing schools & colleges then think about both primary & secondary education, higher studies equally.

Thank you.

This is Malini. In my point of view. Primary education is better as well as secondary education. In primary education we doesn't know more knowledge apart from that in secondary education we know more knowledge.

One thing I will like to mention here that if there is no proper primary and secondary education, then it might be the case that some students miss out on the opportunity of getting selected in IIMs and IITs. So the government should spend more on primary and secondary education.

Other thing is that even if they do not make it to IITs or IIMs they can still life in which they are not fooled by others. They can understand the situation better.

Primary education should be given more importance as we are missing lots of smart brain who all my contribute a lot to development only due to lack of proper primary education. If we don't concentrate on primary education out IIT'S and IIM'S seats will not be filled in years coming. So sit before extending the legs. Spend on the base and later we will have a strong building as well in future.

Hey,

Even I think India should focus more on primary education as it is said what the use of fancy building without strong foundation so the quality of primary education should increase instead of increasing IIM and IIT.

Hi friends this is Sidhartha. I think government should give more importance primary education. Because if our base is not so strong them we could nt get stable. Because of poor primary education so many talented students couldnt further improving. So govt should try to improve that as well as they should also think about secondary education. Both are related to each other. India is a developing country. So to make it developed country education standard should be increasing.

I think, the government should focus more on improving primary education. Few years back, 8 new IITs were established. We need to ensure whether the existing IITs have proper infrastructure, good teachers, sophisticated lab and research facilities. We need to make sure that the quality of students graduating from these new IITs is at par with those from older ones. Research should encouraged by allocating funds. If we set up more IITs and ignore the quality of older ones, it will lead to degradation of the brand.

I think that the idea to create more IITs & IIMs is really stupid & should be nipped at the bud. These institutes are reputed mainly because of the difficulty in getting admission to them. So, in effect only the cream of the cream go into & come out of these institutes. By increasing their number, we are only diluting the brand value & pouring water on the hard work put in by previous graduates & post graduates in securing degrees from these prestigious institutions.

I sincerely hope that they don't increase the number from the current number (which in itself is quite high considering the fact that the newer IIMs (6 of them) are finding difficulty in attracting companies for placements.

First of all we have to look into the conditions of the new IIT and IIM which opened few years back. Most of them have not even moved to a permanent campuses. Considering about the faculty, these colleges are lacking a good faculty as compared to the older ones. As compared to the new IIMs I think IIT is in better position. So instead of opening new colleges we can do few things in old colleges like starting classes in two shift and increase batch strength.

Hello everyone.

We as the citizens of developing country should give importance to both these sectors of education. Most of the percentage of the people of our nation are in between the age group of 18-30. What they need is the useful and best education to attain which IIT's and IIM's play very important role and to fulfill the educational needs of present grown up children establishment of new primary schools is also important. What I feel is that if we establish these by proper utilization of funds at proper places and maintain them properly, we can reach our goal successfully.
