This has made the Planning Commission suggest that the medical education sector should be opened up completely for private sector participation and companies should be allowed to establish medical and dental colleges just as they have been allowed to open nursing colleges.
Yeah first they make pathetic investment in health sector(.99 percent of GDP), then they make govt. medical college education very unattractive by making quixotic rules, then call in the big brothers. I may be missing something here, how does opening for private sector solve the problem or doctors leaving the country?
Also I had a tough time finding the findings of these report on: http://planningcommission.nic.in/plans/planrel/11thf.htm, you can try your luck and let me know.

And believe it or not, our readers' second choice of the 'Biggest Fool' is the India's common man himself. Of course, he takes various avatars such as the Indian Public, Public, citizens of India, Indian citizen, the common man, I, me, general public and aam aadmi .
In a clear message that the Indian voter is dissatisfied with the choices he makes, at number three comes the Indian voter and his various avatars such as 'I who voted' and even 'The Indian voter for letting politicians take him for a ride'.
Its quite shocking huh? After the 2004 election shock isn't it so obvious that the common man/voter is an idiot? Only we(the elites) know what's good for him. Right? Don't tell me it was a self depricating humor, because, if it were the whole survey is moot.

"The Minister was concerned about the meritorious poor students who will not be able to afford the burden of fee-hike," Singhania said adding IIM-A has decided to increase the scholarship manifold.
Of course the scholarship will be provided to RIGHT kind of students, students who are disciplined and go along the dictat and not express any dissent. They will be well behaved and must agree with the form of management and studies WE say are right.
