By:- Prof. Ramakant Sharma

Per annum we have nearly 7 lacks Engineering, among them hardly 1 lack got a job. Other 6 lacks have no direction what to do? The study pattern is also not effective, AICTE and Universities just giving B.Tech. Degree to society, not Engineers.

I think it will help to control our male-female ratio too.

4. Make women empowered
