India, Nov. 18 -- In an attempt to improve the state's higher education system, governor and chancellor of all state universities Acharya Devvrat said that all universities must have a task force that submits a progress report to the Raj Bhavan every fifteen days. At a meeting held at Raj Bhavan on the National Education Policy (NEP 2020) and Vision Maharashtra 2047, Devvrat told vice-chancellors that universities must show continuous progress, not just plan on paper.

The Governor said that improving national and global rankings requires steady work and accountability. "Only making plans is not enough; universities must ensure consistent implementation," he told the VCs.
