Issue 11 | July 2009

Background

India has over 300 universities and 15,600 colleges turning out 2.5 million graduates a year. In terms of volume production, the country trails behind only the USA and China. Yet this large mass of highly educated Indians co-exists with a large mass of illiterates.
