Edit warring/NPOV issue
An IP editor in this article seems to be making promotional edits promoting India's curriculum and praising it unneccesarily and edit warring in this article.

 * Cite praising language used, explain how you would like to make it coherent, and also explain unnecessarily. FYI, there is no warring going on. Just responding to an unwarranted talk page notification, not going to bother with this anymore, moving on. However, kindly recommend changes you wish to see here so someone else can fix it. 61.3.154.7 (talk)  — Preceding undated comment added 11:57, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * "Indian higher education is radical in terms of accessibility, and needs radical reforms in standards, giving value, and pacing. A focus on enforcing both streamlining and holding higher standards of curriculum with the help of international academic publishers for transparency and reducing inequalities characterised by globalisation, making the vocational and doctoral education pipeline value-oriented and innovative, personalisation of the sector for students to gain immediate and valid transferable credentials in their own pace (e.g., Massive open online course, digital learning, etc.), empowering students to enter the work-force through exit and re-entry options with necessary building blocks of knowledge that leads to a skill/set of skills from a single or multiple academic fields (with required chains of knowledge), instituting stronger institutional responsibility in services for reprioritizing service delivery and for working around related complexities, working with international standardization agencies to ensure students are getting value out of the programs, etc are the basic changes needed for gaining international and national competency."
 * For example, this paragraph seems to have a non-NPOV tone as it seems to overly praise the education system in India. Also, its readability needs to be improved too because run on sentences can get quite hard to read at times.
 * I will work on copyediting and NPOVing this article in the future.
 * Shadow of the Starlit Sky  (talk)  12:24, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I would also suggest to put the article through all the basic Wikipedia policies to ensure quality of the article.61.3.154.7 (talk) 12:30, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I will certainly do that and try to expand this article in the future.

Global competency and alignment section
There seems to be a dispute over the inclusion of. This section is a gross violation of WP:NPOV, given sentences such as "needs radical reforms in standards", WP:SYNTH (the linked McKinsey report does not even mention education ) and unduly features a random blog entry as the source of most of the content in this section (see WP:WEIGHT). I believe the inclusion of this section should be reverted. 128.41.35.204 (talk) 11:40, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
