It looks like universities keen to expand into India can forget it

For years Indian officialdom considered allowing international universities to set-up there, But not now. The country’s three year  “action agenda” makes no mention of a role for foreign institutions. The idea now is to designate 20 research-focused universities “world class” and provide the ten public ones with money and autonomy to “compete globally”. There is no word of importing research, teaching or governance expertise.
