Special Scheme for Heritage Institutions Guidelines 2018.

Abstract

There are many institutions in our country, which have a long history, not necessarily in its present form, and have contributed tremendously not only in the field of higher education but also in maintenance of cultural, social and moral fabric of the long history of our country. Their extramural approach has often touched lives of the poorest of the poor and their teachings towards rendering selfless service which have often been increased access to quality education, yet, there are institutions that have guided on the principles of ‘giving back to the society’. Therefore, it is felt that there is a need to recognize and reward such heritage institutions so as to enable them to continue to inspire our younger generation the value of ‘true education’.
