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.

No, IIT's and IIM's should not increase in INDIA. We should increase the performance of other college and provide faculty and study like IIT's AND IIM's.

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.

In India the IIT's and IIM's are running very few places. So we need to increase that.

According to my view, India needs so many primary schools to develop the primary level education. There are so many children, (almost 40%) are out of this ground level system. Government should first think about how to develop the primary educational system and how to increase its quality, so that 100% children will get the proper education.

I think Primary and Secondary education should be provided more because it is the basic need for country it will also increase the literacy rate of country. Instead of it IIT and IIM need some classification which is given by primary and secondary education. Also IIT and IIM cost a lot of money.

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 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.

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.
