Challenges for Foreign Education Institutions in India

Dinesh Kumar, Dr. Manmohan Rahul

Abstract: Presently, more than 600 foreign education institutions are operating in India with different arrangements but without any proper regulation resulting in commercialization of education and exploitation of the students. The Foreign Educational Bill was introduced to regulate these institutions and also to lay down clear guidelines in a view to attract more number of quality foreign institutes. The bill has been approved in principle but is still pending in Lok Sabha due to opposition from various private Indian institutions. Despite a emerging huge Indian market and potential for growth, majority of these foreign institutions are not willing to open own campuses in India and prefer to carryout student enrolment through websites, fairs, seminars or local partners. The provisions of the likely bill and India’s socio-economic-political structure pose various obstacles to these institutions.  In this research paper, the issues which may deter any foreign education institution while making a decision to enter Indian education sector have been studied.

Keywords: Foreign Education Bill, Challenges for Foreign Education Institutions, Highlights of Foreign Education Bill.
