The State has a vision to develop and maintain the universities and colleges as a centre of excellence in teaching and research and achieve a higher Gross Enrolment Ratio of 30 % by the end of 13th Plan. Meghalaya has always been established as the hub for education and higher educational facilities that are exemplary but can be much more improved. In the State Higher Education Plan (SHEP), the state has identified 11 priority Areas that need developmental and expansion work. They are as follows: East Khasi Hills: There are altogether: 1 Government College, 19 Government aided Higher Educational Institutions, 13 Private Institutions, 5 Central Government Colleges/Universities, 5 Private Universities and 1 Government Polytechnic.

The priorities of the state are Infrastructure Development, Quality Assurance, Access and Equity, and Capacity Building in Students. The main Constraints are: Lack of Infrastructural development due to lack of funds, Accreditation amongst the Colleges is lowest in the state, High Teacher-student ratio adversely affect quality teaching in the institutions of higher education. Most of the part of the budget goes towards salary, infrastructure and maintenance, leaving insignificant trace of budget for academics in the institutions.

  • Brief Industrial Profile of West Garo Hills District
    Brief Industrial Profile Of West Garo Hills District Brief Industrial Profile of West Garo Hills District. 1. General Characteristics of the District : West Garo Hills is one of the largest district of Meghalaya located in the western part of the State. The Garo Hills district was divided into two districts, viz. the West Garo Hills district and the East Garo Hills district in October 1976. The erstwhile West Garo Hills district was further divided into two administrative districts of West and South Garo Hills on June 1992. The district headquarters of West Garo Hills is Tura, which is the second largest town in the State after Shillong. The population is pre-dominantly inhabited by the Garos, a tribe with a matrilineal society belonging to the Bodo family of the Tibeto-Burman race tribes. Other indigenous inhabitants are the Hajongs, Rabhas, Koches, Rajbansis, Meches, Kacharis and Dalus. The district is also inhabited by Bengalis, Assamese, Nepalese, Marwaries, Biharis and people from other parts of India The whole of Garo Hills region forms a sort of undulating plateau with plenty of flat lands and valleys with altitudes varying from 100-1400 m above sea level, Nokrek being the highest point, i.e., 1418m. The district has a rich and unique flora and it is supposed to be the original home of the Citrus. The climate of the district is largely controlled by South-West monsoon and seasonal winds. The West Garo Hills district being relatively lower in altitude to the rest of Meghalaya, experiences a fairly high temperature for most part of the year.
