Abstract

Technical Education is the crux of the Twentieth Century. Stake holder of Education System and the Society on a whole, felt the need for educating and empowering in the field of technical education. India is no exception. The name India brings out the blend of multi-cultured residents and hitherto was treated as underdeveloped society. But with the advent of Technical Education in India about a century ago, the ever welcoming and excelling country had adapted to this new-culture as well and soon proved its stance in the global scenario. Having said this, teaching and learning process has been slogged in the country for various reasons.
