UK wants to strengthen ties with India in education

UK wants to "push forward" its relationship with India in the education sector and British universities are increasingly interested in coming to the country to collaborate like "never before", Minister for Human Resource Development Kapil Sibal has said.

After an extensive visit to the University of Surrey and the Imperial College of London, Sibal, on a visit here, told newsmen: "in both institutions we felt these institutions are ready to collaborate with us".

"They (the institutions) are exceptionally serious about coming to India in a very substantive way," he told newsmen.

He said the Imperial College had some substantial projects to offer and "they did tell me in confidence about these projects".link
