The same thoughts were spoken by the Vice President of India Hamid Ansari who addressed the 41st convocation of the IIT Delhi and awarded degrees to 1371 students. He said "No Indian university, not even an IIT, figures in the top 100 of Shanghai Jiao Tong University Institute’s academic ranking of world universities or in top 100 of the 2009 Times Higher Education world university rankings". He added that the reason for this was the lower number of patents and research work done by the institution.

The society has to restore the traditional status and prestige as used to be attached to the teaching profession". Share your thoughts with about this in the comments section.
