The Centre on Wednesday announced that more Central institutions could be given increased autonomy and freed from Government's "micro-management” on the lines of the IIM Bill which was given its full autonomy a day earlier.
HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar said that the IIM Bill 2017 is an indication that other institutes, which excel in their field, could get more autonomy. He said it was being considered that best institutions are given maximum autonomy, those which are average get some autonomy and some regulation while a different system is there for those which are not performing too well.
As he emphasised on the importance of giving more autonomy, Javadekar said that Modi government is a very democratic one where decisions are taken on the basis of consultations. "In this Government, no letter comes from somewhere," he said in what appeared a dig at political rivals.
