No Indian educational institution among Asia's top 30

No Indian educational institution was able to make it among the top 30 in the recently released Asian institution rankings. "QS Asian University 2012 rankings have just been released and no Indian educational institution has been able to make it among the top 30 Asian institutions," Chairman-Board of Governors of Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar, GN Mashelkar said, while speaking at the first Convocation of the institute in Gandhinagar.

The ranking was released around two weeks ago, he said adding only four Indian institutions have made it to top 50. Expressing concern over the trend, Mashelkar said none of our (Indian) educational institutions have occupied space ever in top one hundred in the global rankings released by Sanghai University.
"The global rankings is given by Sanghai University, and we have never been there in the top one hundred," he said. He pointed out that for an institute to rise to top, it should essentially have three virtues innovation, passion and compassion.
