While the general participation rates in higher education has been steadily increasing and today our HE GER is 21.5%, this is not evenly spread across social groups and women. Equitable growth is essential to sustain higher GER rates and hence what kinds of affirmative action could be suggested to reduce gender and social disparities in here.

Sir,please give more attention towards the girls education and I am requesting you not to give any scholarship on the basis of caste but on the basis of economical background.

Lack of vision in the existing policy is major cause of social gaps.Quality of education one receives is dependent on your economic status and the place you reside. why should an underprivileged child residing in rural center be denied quality education?Is quality education only meant for those who can afford them? Imagine if every child born is this country has easy access to quality education. Equal platform for all irrespective of his status location. Lot of social issues can be solved.

Reservation should be on the basis of economic backwardness not caste. Each day a general category person bears the brunt of this reservation system. Please change this system if you really want to see our country to achieve excellence and see all the stakeholders contributing to its success rather than each community holding protests to get reservation.The present system is not going to eradicate the dis-balance but it may trigger caste based riots.

We have stepped in 68th year of independence but our Indian baniya/chawala mind is way back in the 19th century. Why are the children of today punished for the deeds of their fore grandfather. The Knowledgeable & able are left for boot polish & the privileged & reserved category unable clout the growth. How long the reservation category carry on...........

One way to close the social gap is to have group projects during the study - like a field trip for a biology class, or playing a drama. Teachers should make sure the the group is made of students coming from different social and economical status. Working to-gather on the same project will automatically build the bond, trust and in the long run will help remove the differences.

Male and Female are created with certain inherent qualities. They both are equal. Ardha-Nari-Nateshwar is our ideal. To artificially force such qualities is not good and in the long run can ruin the society. Please focus on strengthening what a given gender can give to his/her family, society, nation and the world. Of-course remove discrimination based on gender.

Education must groom children towards Physical, Mental and Social health. Yoga, excercises, meditation and community work should be part of the education system. Education must teach human values and enable children to become better individuals, participating family members, responsible citizens, helpful community members and thoughful leaders. They must also be provided vocational training, and life skills like cooking, cleaning, organizing, teamwork, cooperation, building and creativity.
