Speaking on the occasion, PCC Chief Patel said that the education policy of Gujarat government was directionless. As a result, he said, students had to suffer. Giving an example he said that Gujarat government was going whole hog for self finance institutions which had made education very costly. On the other hand, he said, there was mechanism to check infrastructure and quality of these institutions. On the other hand grant in aid institutions were completely ignored. Of the 26 polytechnics in the state, only five had principals. There was no recruitment in government colleges in the last five years. For news in Hindi see our Hindi daily Chaupal Chronicle
