Prime Minister's Independence Day, 2007 Speech:Education Sector
by Mukesh Anand 16 Aug '07

16 Aug '07

Dear Members', Here I am giving the segment of Education in our Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh's Independence Day,2007 Speech. Prime Minister's speech on Independence Day, 2007 on August 15, 2007: Education Sector My dear countrymen, brothers, sisters and dear children ................ For every one of our people to benefit from new employment opportunities being created across the economy, we must ensure that every Indian is educated and skilled. No nation can progress unless its people are educated. We have shown our Government's commitment in this regard by tripling public spending on education in the last 3 years. I request states also to give priority to education, as education alone is the foundation on which a progressive, prosperous society can be built. Growing revenue earnings have improved the fiscal capacity of the States. They must now give priority to education. Towards this end, our Government has decided to invest in setting up Good Quality Schools across the country. We will support 6,000 new High Quality Schools - One in every Block of the country. Each such school will set standards of excellence for other schools in the area. As our primary education programmes achieve a degree of success, there is growing demand for secondary schools and colleges. We are committed to universalizing secondary education. An extensive programme for this is being finalized We will also ensure that adequate numbers of colleges are set up across the country, especially in Districts where Enrolment Levels are low. We will help States set up Colleges in 370 such districts. The University system, which has been relatively neglected in recent years, is now the focus of our reform and development agenda. We will set up 30 new Central Universities. Every state that does not have a Central University will now have one. In order to promote science and professional education, we are setting up 5 new Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research, 8 new Indian Institutes of Technology, 7 new Indian Institutes of Management, and 20 new Indian Institutes of Information Technology. These will generate new educational opportunities for our youth. I am sure that, working together, we can ensure that at least a fifth of our children go to college as compared to one-tenth now. The vast majority of our youth seek skilled employment after schooling. Last year I spoke the need for a Vocational Education Mission. Such a Mission is ready to be launched. We will soon launch a Mission on Vocational Education and Skill Development, through which we will open 1600 new Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) and Polytechnics, 10,000 new Vocational Schools and 50,000 new Skill Development Centres. We will ensure that annually, over 100 lakh students get vocational training – which is a four-fold increase from today's level. We will seek the active help of the private sector in this initiative so that they not only assist in the training but also lend a hand in providing employment opportunities. We should seek not just functional literacy, but Good Quality Education – Education that is Affordable, Accessible, Equitable – and Available to every Boy and Girl who seeks to study. For the needy we will provide more Scholarships. I wish to see a revolution in the field of Modern Education in the next few years. It is my fervent desire that India becomes a fully educated, modern, progressive nation. From this historic Red Fort, I would like this message to go to every corner of India – we will make India a Nation of Educated People, of Skilled People, of Creative People. ..................................... Let us all come together and work resolutely for the welfare of our people and for the development of our nation. Jai Hind!
