You can refer to the different official reports or to the Economic and political weekly for reliable data. The Govt does spend a bit on education. The present Govt has increased the spending.
I also meant how much of it actually reaches the student/faculty. They can *claim* expenditure, but, how much is actually spent on "education". Is it spent properly so everyone *really* benefits from them? No.
How many EE departments have Digital Design Labs with FPGAs?
How many CS/IT departments have Embedded Labs?
The fact is that lot of research is done and often with very limited or no grants.
Please. Most private college management that I have seen ask their faculty to do PhDs so they can *claim* that they have x number of PhDs.
