Why didn't he do this 3 years back?
1% Higher Education CESS was charged on Every Cash memo/Bill..... since last
10? years.
They say there is lack of transparency - where THIS MASSIVE cess money goes
Unworthy Ministers/Babus allocate10,000+Crores accruing that way every year.
It is Criminal inequality that Delhi collects the bleeder tax and allows ~1Lakh
of India Students to go abroad .
Up To Rs 10 lakhs in Hard Currency are allowed to be taken out to go study
specialities like " Courting Habits of Siberian Sandpipers-- those with spots
on their lower left sides"
And covertly hoping to get back more in Return money-- because they never
return-Govt. knows and likes!
And nobody really found out if the last Covert Hope was materialized.
Some believe that those who "ESCAPED" actually return posing NRI Tycoons to
loot India more and massively

Independence Day Speech, 2007 on Education:
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 three 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 thirty 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 five
new Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research, eight new Indian
Institutes of Technology, seven new Indian Institutes of Management, and twenty
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.
