TEQIP III: Only Bihar, Uttarakhand continue with highly qualified teachers in engineering colleges -Sumi Sukanya Dutta

-The New Indian Express

Nearly 1,500 technical education teachers across 18 states had joined on a temporary basis in technical institutions in backward or “aspirational” districts in 2018.

NEW DELHI: Despite intervention by the Union education ministry, only two states so far -- Bihar and Uttarakhand -- have agreed to absorb pass-outs from the Indian Institutes of Technology and National Institutes of Technology that were recruited in engineering institutes in rural and semi-urban areas.  

Nearly 1,500 technical education teachers when recruited across 18 states had joined on temporary basis in technical institutions in backward or “aspirational” districts in early 2018 under a special project steered by the Centre.

Many of these recruits were PhDs or M. Tech holders of Indian Institutes of Science Education with some degrees from Research and Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, apart from graduates from the IITs and NITs.

The government had projected the World Bank-funded Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQIP III) as a measure to aid technical colleges in various states. These states included Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand Madhya Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, Andaman, and Nicobar, Assam, and Meghalaya, among others.
