Higher Education Problem

It is a disheartening sign for higher education in West Bengal that a number of institutions are facing students-related crisis. After the Jadavpur University fiasco, it is the turn for the Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute, the West Bengal Engineering and Science University and the West Bengal University of Technology to face the problems. All these three institutes are relatively new, and their problems can perhaps be attributed mainly to a communication gap between the administration and the students. West Bengal has always been known for the brilliant students and industry-ready personnel it produces with amazing regularity and success. Now when industrialization is all set to receive a new lease of life in the state, the higher education scenario, which is the breeding ground for the developing brains, should not be neglected.
