Main Body
Violation of local justice ideals. Ex: No reservation for SCs, STs, OBCs. Non-attractive nature of emoluments. Ex: As compared in the corporate sector. Way Forward: Making service conditions attractive. Ex: Higher pay—8th PC. Teaching bureaucratic resilience. Ex: Through strong political will. Reform of traditional bureaucracy. Ex: E-government platform. This will serve a harmonise spirit in governance and lead to a Viksit Bharat.
The ranking of HEIs while reflecting a broader board of objectivity in policy making fail to take a holistic view of educational and societal outcome. Current Framework's Short Fall: Focus on non-educational aspects disproportionately. Ex: NIRF—paid more emphasis to enforce exclusively. Perception based ranking defeat objectivity. Ex: GC World Ranking. Do not measure learning outcome. Ex: Outcome in terms of salary only.
Fails to gauge the shell-industry mismatch. Ex: 19.7% of students placed under PM KVY. Measures To Make Ranking System Objective: Define criteria for ranking on basis of usability in future. Ex: Skill set, learning outcome (PRATHHAM for schools). Principle of equity to ensure must. Ex: Accounting for private capital in auditing infrastructure. Include measurable indicators. Ex: Instead of perceptions.
Inclusive: Move beyond criteria of infrastructure. Ex: Rank equipment, teacher quality. Audit discrimination on the campus. Ex: 13,700 students dropped from IITs, IIMCs from SC, ST, OBCs. Include gender parity among both teachers and students in the ranking. Aligned with educational and societal outcomes: Measure industry-driven skills ecosystem. Ex: To promote employment. Measure political relevance of HEIs pedagogy. Ex: Market linkage. Thus, this can aid objective ranking of HEIs and aid, 'Shiksha Se Samriddhi'.
