520 _aHigher education should be responsible for developing knowledge-enabled citizens towards bringing socio-economic development, cooperation, and socially responsible conduct in society. For a developing nation like India, higher education is like an instrument to poverty alleviation and ensuring sustainable development for its residents. Globalization and ICT interventions are considerably influencing higher education and have expanded its reach to rural, remote, and backward regions. Being the second-largest population in the world, without an effective value-based education system, India’s cultural diversity, regional variety, geographic attributes, and untapped human resources become unworthy. It was surprising that the number of graduates from an institution or a university is significantly less than the total population living in the country. Besides Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER), some fundamental challenges to the Indian higher education system include equal access to learning, educational technology, innovative practices, insufficiency of teaching personnel, infrastructural access, the adaptation of global standards, applied research, and quality management. – Reproduced
