Since its inception, the Council has been endeavouring incessantly in accomplishing its mandate with profound sagacity of commitment for a spirit of coordination and consensus among various stakeholders in the field of higher education. Working in tandem with the State government for an inclusive and qualitative growth in higher education, the Council has been performing as catalyst to extend all possible support in addressing three overarching challenges: excellence, equity and expansion. The activities performed in the areas of planning and coordination, academic and advisory functions are listed in this report. The Council is also instrumental in the formation of new academic institutions, expanding and upgrading the existing ones, recommending institutions that are self-reliant in terms of quality education, professionally managed, and characterized by greater inclination towards research and provide students with edification that is relevant to them as well the nation as a whole. In an increasingly globalized society, the needs and expectations of society have been changing very fast with rising demand for quality education and greater sustainability at the desired level. Where quality of higher education rests on the quality of all its facets, be it faculty, staff, students, or infrastructure, the sustainability challenges to rethink the missions and reorganize courses, research programs, and knowledge base.

A remarkable feature of our higher education system is the balanced approach in expanding the opportunities of higher studies in liberal arts, humanities, social and basic sciences, commerce and in interdisciplinary areas along with the study in science and technology. That our efforts are definitely bearing fruits is reflected in the fact that the number of research publications per faculty in most of these disciplines in our universities compares very well by all India standard. A very large percentage of the research scholars now working in prestigious scientific establishments of our country are young graduates or postgraduates from our universities. With a view to open up new opportunities to our aspiring young generation, to increase Gross Enrolment Ratio and to reduce gender disparity, the Government has set up 22 new general degree colleges during this financial year.
