India has a million engineers looking for work. It is unwise to have a few hundred people decide what a country needs in terms of education.
Somewhere between a fifth to a third of the million students graduating out of India's engineering colleges run the risk of being unemployed. Others will take jobs well below their technical qualifications in a market where there are few jobs for India's overflowing technical talent pool. Beset by a flood of institutes (offering a varying degree of education) and a shrinking market for their skills, India's engineers are struggling to subsist in an extremely challenging market.
The alternative is to introduce more freedom, so people might seek gainful self-employment.
