The glissando of Make-in-India campaign is perched on rhetorics like Skill India and Ease of Doing Business. It is also a takeoff on the NMP-2011, which seeks to bolster India's manufacturing foot print, encourage FDI, and bolster exports. The paper brings out the genesis of our manufacturing policy and experience and the challenges that confront Make-in-India. It highlights disconnects that manifest in our education policy both at the primary and tertiary level where GER and inclusivity have become the buzzword; clearly discounting the quality dimension. It draws upon the global best practices where local bodies are financially and functionally empowered to provide quality education at the primary level and act as the building block for research and innovation at the tertiary level. The paper makes a powerful plea for evolving a new educational policy where public policy treats the primary and higher education as a merit good in a holistic manner, fosters PPP, quality and eschew ideological obscurantism. It also calls for abnegating the asphyxiating control that shrouds the UGC.

Manufacturing and Education: The missing links2016 •
The Make-In-India policy is a takeoff on the National Manufacturing Policy (NMP) (2011) which seeks to bolster India’s manufacturing and employment substantially. There is also a distinct shift from public sector dominance to Public Private Partnership (PPP) architecture and creating the right environment for private sector to flourish. The major findings are: inadequacy in budget allocation to different segments of education, serious short falls in terms of outcomes in primary education, research and patents registered by the universities and laboratories and significant gaps in skill availability to meet the opportunity in the pipeline.

India’s new education policy: a case of indigenous ingenuity contributing to the global knowledge economy?Purpose Given that the policy is rather comprehensive and detailed, this paper aims to identify some of the key features and discuss the mechanisms by which the benefits of the policy might reach all sections of society. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, we analyse India’s new education policy (NEP) and discuss how it might impact education and employment in India and the neighbourhood. Findings This paper believes that the NEP (2020) is likely to alter the educational landscape of India and make education accessible to all sections of society. In addition, the impact of this bill will be felt in the Indian workplace. Research limitations/implications This paper would urge the policymakers, educationists and corporate leaders to conduct research on the benefits of the NEP in two phases. In the short run, they could study the implementation – in the long run, all three stakeholders should track the changes in the quality of graduates being produced as a result of the new pol...
This paper analyses the " Make in India " program in larger canvases and evaluates challenges at national and international level. Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced Make in India program from the Red Fort during his maiden speech in the year 2014. The objective of this program is to boot manufacture sector in India. This very ambitious plan gain worldwide appreciation. It is an open invitation to showcase India's potential to rest of the world in terms of large demographic market and workforce potential available in India. The government of India has initiated various program to give imputes to manufacturing sector like Skill India, Stand up India, Start-up India, digital India. Clearing of goods and services tax (GST) will from the parliament is significant step to improve India's rank in Ease of doing a business index of World Bank. The International business environment is also changing very rapidly after United States presidential election. This paper will evaluate different trend and challenges in the implementation of Make in India nationally and internationally.

Manufacturing Engineering Education in India2016 •
Evolution of manufacturing technology has been a definitive indicator of human society’s development. From the wheels that started the spree to the world of machines that have revolutionized the manufacturing processes, manufacturing tools have been indicative of eras of development. In this paper, we have focused on the branch of engineering that deals with manufacturing - specifically its structure in India. In this study we investigate some premier government institutes with respect to Manufacturing Engineering Education. We have also included the technical education model at different education level.
India has been witnessing a serious problem with employment generation. " Make in India " campaign aims at transforming India into a global manufacturing hub and generate enough employment. However, the current status of the manufacturing sector presents several impediments in making Make in India a success. Overtime, the absorptive capacity of the sector has tended to decline, which poses serious doubts about the achievability of the aims of the campaign. In such a case exclusive focus on the manufacturing sector looks like a faulty strategy. The paper argues that identifying appropriate manufacturing goods and services that can generate enough employment and usher in growth is a better strategy. Along with this identification Skilling and educating India has become imperative, to make the workforce ready for productive employment opportunities.
Manufacturing sector is the backbone of any economy. It fuels growth, productivity, employment, and strengthens the agricultural sector and the service sector. With, the gradual slowdown of the world economy and slowing down of consumption demand, it is pertinent to strengthen the country's manufacturing export growth by overcoming the bottlenecks of high cost of capital, lack of economies of scale, inflexible labour laws, inadequate infrastructure, lack of branding, trade barriers etc. Through this paper, I attempt to identify the problems faced by the manufacturing sector in the first part of the paper. In the second part of the paper I critically examine the newly launched Make in India initiative and analyse its strength, weakness, opportunity and threat. And try to find out whether the efforts of the government to make manufacturing a key engine for India's economic growth are giving fruitful results.
Manufacturing is the key for growth and employment in any economy. The growth in manufacturing leads to development and growth in other sectors too. But the situation of manufacturing sector in India is not promising when compared to other developing economies. ‘Make in India’ initiative launched by the recent government has been successful in creating the optimism in the market. So, an attempt has been made here to know the important policies under this initiative and its effects for future.
One and a half years after the launch of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Make in India’ initiative, the ‘Make in India Week’ in Mumbai marked another important milestone in the assessment of his government. Within the frameworks of economic growth and human development, this analysis aims at contributing to current debates through addressing the following issues. By providing an overview of the Indian growth model, it evaluates the pending Land Bill and the emphasis on manufacturing besides the crucial issue of economic growth’s trickle-down effect on human development. By adding to the ‘geography versus institutions’ debate on the deep determinants of economic growth, the analysis highlights the geographically clustered nature of manufacturing. On the other hand, it also emphasises the pre-requisites for foreign investments, such as the pending Goods and Services Tax (GST) Bill, and some Indian states’ potential in terms of their demographic dividend. Overall, in order to make PM Modi’s initiatives successful in the long run, more state-focused skill and vocational trainings, infrastructure development and balanced subsidy systems are proposed. These, however, can only work if improvement of the legal and political environment, additionally, quick enactment and monitoring of in-depth reforms are guaranteed.
