Abstract

The landscape is changing. The wakeup call is ringing to restructure the survival strategy in this 'perform or perish rat race' of the marketdriven, borderless Academic Globalisation. Higher education happens to be the pivot element of the national development as it promotes production and dissemination of knowledge. In this rapidly changing and extremely complex borderless global environment contribution of higher education is undisputed towards ensuring equity, justice, solidarity and liberty. As a signatory to the WTO Agreement, India is now committed to work within the framework of GATS which means the Indian Higher Education scenario is now exposed to unequal competition with transnational educational providers.
