Technical Education Of INDIA Is One Of The Best

Technical education of India is best in the world: Hillary Clinton

It’s a great achievement for India when US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that India’s technical education system is one of the best in this field, though it faces a challenge of providing adequate primary education to millions of children.

“You can look at the very best in Indian education, and it’s the best in the world. You can look at the technical education and it is to be envied. It is so effective,” Clinton said.

Clinton admitted that millions of children in India, however, don’t have adequate primary education or secondary education or, certainly, college education. but still they are one of the best in world as far as technical education is concerned

“India faces the challenge of so many people to serve in very rural areas, often without adequate infrastructure, so you have to come to grips with how you actually produce the schools that are needed, the teachers who will be dedicated, the curriculum and materials that are required,” she said.

“It is truly up to all of us — families, governments, businesses, educational institutions — to do everything we can to give every child a chance to grow up and fulfill his or her God-given potential,” Clinton said.

Referring to her trip to Mumbai last month where she discussed education with volunteers from Teach India and Teach for India, Clinton was very impressed said their passion for service lit up their faces as they talked about the importance of giving every Indian child the chance for an excellent education.

“The underpinning of global progress is education across the entire spectrum, from early schooling to the advanced research and post-graduate work,” she said.
