The Modi government has come up with a great plan to invite 1000 US professors to teach in Indian Universities, every year. Couple of days ago, the HRD minister tweeted that Fields Medalist and Princeton professor Dr. Manjul Bhargava has agreed to be a part of this program and teach in India. If this proposal, known as GIAN — global initiative of academic network — works out, it will be a game-changer in higher education in India. If the best scientists in the word start visiting and teaching in India (even for short periods of months), it will increase the standard of education and research in India. But most of the mainstream media is silent about GIAN. I googled “GIAN Manjul Bhargava site:ndtv.com†— zero results! This reinforces the known theory — journalism in India is agenda driven.
G_B_ Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 .... ties into the other thread. As i said before the left leaning media needs to be culled. You need to play hard ball with these people] need to find who owns these media houses and need to fine how they make money. Then using legal means ensure they suffer monetary losses.
