Economic & Political WeeklySummary: The Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhisthan Bill, 2025 proposes to statutorily pave the way for centralisation, commercialisation, and privatisation of higher education in India. As envisaged, the VBSA will result in the onset of conditions of extreme privatisation. The state governments need to immediately intervene in this matter. The bill allows the decision-making on higher education institutions to become one-dimensional, promoting hyper-globalisation rather than national innovation for self-reliance and social justice. It will end the obligation of the union government to promote education as a publicly funded enterprise for the common good. –Reproduced
