By TIOL News Service

NEW DELHI, APRIL 19, 2018: STUDENTS across the world will now be able to pursue the education in prominent Indian Educational Institutions. In another ground breaking initiative of HRD Ministry, Union External Affairs Minister, Ms Sushma Swaraj and Minister of State for HRD, Dr. Satya Pal Singh jointly launched the Study in India programme of HRD Ministry by launching the  ‘Study in India' portal (www.studyinindia.gov.in) at the India Habitat Centre in New Delhi yesterday. The integration of e-SANAD portal and NAD – National Academic Depository (of HRD Ministry), was also launched by Ms Swaraj on the occasion.

While addressing the occasion, Ms Swaraj said the quest for knowledge has always been fundamental to India's culture and civilization. Throughout our history, India has made seminal contributions to human thought, philosophy and development. Our ancient philosophical concepts, such as Vasudeva Kuttumbakam and Sarva Dharma Sambhava, remain eternal. The "Study in India' is an innovative initiative to attract students from our partner countries in South Asia, South-East Asia, Middle East and Africa to come and experience the very best of academic learning from the top institutions in India. This will be achieved through systematic brand-building, identifying quality institutions for receiving the students, creating suitable infrastructure and facilitation structures. The "Study in India Portal” will become a single window to cover all aspects relating to studying in India for foreign students.
