While the general participation rates in higher education has been steadily increasing and today our HE GER is 21.5%, this is not evenly spread across social groups and women. Equitable growth is essential to sustain higher GER rates and hence what kinds of affirmative action could be suggested to reduce gender and social disparities in here.

3.How to ensure that the girls join colleges or polytechnic? In our college the ratio of boys and girls is almost 50:50. However, many girls are not allowed to pursue their career as parents perform their daughter’s marriage at the age of 18 or more. very fewr allow the daughter to pursue career even though the girls are willing. This is a social issue and parent’s reformation need to be done.

2.What steps can be taken to ensure that students from deprived classes who pass out school join colleges and complete studies? Many graduates and postgraduates prefer jobs so as to enable them to look after the family. But now the awareness is increasing and many of the students are now going abroad also. The number of economic and other facilities may be increased to all, especially open and EBC class students will be benefited by it.
