Striking a clear note of discord with the human resource development ministry’s (MHRD) decision to empower educational tribunals with adjudication status, the Planning Commission has stated that such a move would only lead to the multiplicity of regulatory bodies in the higher education sector.

The HRD Ministry seems to be very firm on its stance of reserving 25% seats for disadvantaged children. Not one to let anyone default on the matter, the ministry is keeping a strict vigil, especially on the minority schools.
 

Moving in leaps and bounds the HRD minister Kapil Sibal is fast covering all points highlighted in his 100 day agenda. Next target on his ‘to-do’ list is the centralisation of all madarsas through the setup of a Central Madarsa Board (CMB). Not lagging behind will also be the agenda of broader reforms, which he intends to broach soon.
