If we were to furnish an example, the first name to pop up would be that of Manav Rachna Educational Institutions, set up by educationist-philanthropist Dr OP Bhalla. From setting up specialised colleges to their all-encompassing global varsity Manav Rachna International University (MRIU), the group has come a long way, and is striving to get better. "We need to open more such varsities all over the world. One small achievement is not enough to feel proud of.

We all know, though scientific developments have taken men to moon and also to Mars, quality education does not touch many lives. Our aim is to benefit all those who have been deprived", asserts senior vice-president Prashant Bhalla.

The university has already set up 30 centres all over the country, and students from countries like Dubai, Saudi Arabia and Syria, to name a few, find the campus endearing.

MREI has also added some new courses to its kitty, like civil engineering and radio jockeying. All their programmes are rich in practical skills, and their placement cell is well-equipped. If you need more testimony, institutes based in Finland, UK, Netherlands and several other countries are keen on partnering with them.

Meanwhile, you can think of being a part.
