By IANSMonday, March 15, 2010
NEW DELHI - The cabinet Monday cleared a bill that will enable foreign educational institutions set up campuses in India.
This is a milestone which will enhance choices, increase competition, and benchmark quality, Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal said after a cabinet meeting chaired by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
(It’s) a larger revolution than even (the one) in the telecom sector, Sibal added.
The bill will now be tabled in parliament for its approval.
