Kochi, Feb 27 : Union HRD Minister Kapil Sibal said the government would connect 6,000 colleges under 800 universities in the country with fibre optics to build an international highway of information.
Inaugurating the Latin Catholic Samudaya Sangamam here, he said the project was expected to be introduced throughout the country in the next three to four years.
Stating that the object of the project was to provide information to each and every one in the country, the Minister said once the connectivity was through the information to each and every one would be made available free of cost.
The Minister also said the ministry would encourage the students living in coastal areas to choose their own course of study and the government would provide certificates on Central Board of Secondary Education(CBSE) system.
By doing this it would be able to give a right hand to lift these category of students from their backwardness, he added.
Mr Sibal also said the government would introduce new devices to know the quantity of fish concentrated in an area for the fishermen, which ultimately would help them to have big catch.
Earlier at a function in Kalamassery while pointing out that there will be a global opportunity as India would be providing the workforce of the world by 2050, he said the country would be the hub of knowledge.
