The Crisis of English Education in Government Colleges of Gujarat

I attended a meeting at Govt. Science College Chikhli, Dist Navsari on 25^th October 2013. The meeting was called for discussing the issues related to the gap in English subject at higher education due to the lack of the professors of English in government colleges of Gujarat state. 

There are 19 government colleges in South Gujarat affiliated to VNSGU Surat and sad to say that there are only 3 GPSC Asst. Professors of English working currently in the entire South Gujarat zone; one is Dr. Pratibha Sharma (Govt. Science College, Chikhli), Shri Ravikant Solanki (Govt. Arts College, Vankal) and Shri Rakesh Patel (Govt. Arts & Commerce College, Ahwa-Dangs). This gap of professors can be filled up by a series of lectures in English that is going to be telecast through the SANDHAN (BISAG) facilities. I hope that the students of English literature will benefit from such vision of KCG and SANDHAN.
