About 60% of Indian Engineering Graduates are not employable

In a shocking revelation today, HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar told the Rajya Sabha that about 60% of Indian engineering graduates failed to get placements after completing college. He was quoting figures from a latest study conducted by the All India Council For Technical Education (AICTE).

This happened during the Question Hour in the Upper House of the Parliament today after several members expressed their concern with the quality of technical education in the country.

The HRD Minister also said that the AICTE will now provide summer internships to at least 75% of engineering graduates in the country to ensure that they are up-to-date with the industry and are able to find a job for themselves.
