Are Indian think tanks a farce?
Even though India is one of the first countries outside Europe and North America, where modern universities have been created (University of Calcutta was established in 1857), it has failed to create an education system par excellence, comparable to the best of the world. Even China’s performance is much better than India. The country has created world class universities like Tsinghua, Fudan and Beijing.
Equally alarming is the quality of think tanks in India. The inputs that have been received from our think tanks by the policy makers over the years have been mooted with contentiousness and indecisiveness. Albeit the fact that there are 122 think tanks in India, only a little more than a handful of them are of quality. Centre for Civil Society, Centre for Indian Political Research and Analysis and Centre for Policy Research are some of the best, although each of them functions in their specialised area of interest.
