With the number of private professional colleges coming up, specially
around South India, the availability is speedily becoming less of an
issue. Quality of education is fair to good (after all, many of us
were eeducated in IndiaI. I understand even the PCC College of
Engineering at Verna has NRI-quota seats.
While these seats tend to be costlier than what a local student would
pay, it's still far more inexpensive than what one would pay for
education elsewhere. Perhaps another issue where expats need to lobby
with the Commissioner for NRIs.
Of course this needs to be done in a cautious manner. If expats ask
for too much, they would be seen as depriving local students of their
seats. On the other hand, if the fees are too high, it would be unfair
to the expats.
But, in a win-win scenario, NRIs could get more seats at a reasonable
price, and thus help to also build the educational networks here by
paying somewhat higher fees (which is probably only equitable, given
their earning-capacity and the fact that they have not been taxpayers
here). FN
