Give direction to degrees |
Mainstream leaders despite making tall claims and promises could not develop infrastructure for educational institutions in Kashmir. For many decades students from the Valley used to migrate to different parts of the country to study medicine, engineering, law and other subjects. Soon after a boy or a girl qualified 12th class, parents used to rush to New Delhi, Haryana, Punjab, Bangalore and other places to look for a suitable college for their ward. To secure a seat they used to pay through their nose and in some cases students used to take educational loan to finance their courses. After completing their degrees, not many students could get jobs they dreamt of and at the end they settled for less. In many cases degrees proved to be directionless. It was only after August 5, 2019, the government encouraged private investors to come forward and invest in developing the education sector in Kashmir.
During the past few years many private colleges have come up in the Valley. Not only private institutions, the government has also set up new colleges in Kashmir as well as Jammu region. Students are being encouraged to pursue their higher studies in the Union Territory rather than moving to other parts of the country.
This change has occurred after a longtime as it was National Conference........
