IN INDIA, STUDENTS' ASPIRATIONS ARE MISALIGNED WITH JOB MARKET

Posted by The Himalayan Voice:

[In a recent survey of more then 2,800 Indian students, the Center for the Advanced Study of India at the University of Pennsylvania concluded that "aspirations of students are largely misaligned with the needs of the Indian economy." It said the construction and automotive sectors are expected to need the most skilled workers over the next decade, but "only a very small proportion" of students want careers in those fields.]

Palas Biswas, a journalist who works for Indian Express, spoke to us from Kolkota, India and shared his views on All India 

Backward (SC, ST, and OBC) and Minority  Communities Employees' Federation, known as BAMCEF, Nepali sentiment, 

Gorkhaland, Kumaon, Garhwal etc. He also criticized New Delhi's interference in Kathmandu's 

internal affairs.
