New Delhi, Oct 17 (IANS): Home Minister Rajnath Singh Friday said the education system in the country needs a qualitative improvement with focus on skill development.

"Our education system needs qualitative improvement and it should focus on skill development, values and spiritual development," he said here while addressing an international conference for school principals.

The home minister also expressed concern that not even one Indian university featured in the list of top 275 universities in the world, according to the Times Higher Education Survey.

Citing a survey conducted by Wheelbox Employability Test, the minister said "only 34 percent of our graduates are employable".

    Your excerpt of the speech of Mr. Rajnath Singh ji is worth praising. If it is a part of the speech of Hon Rajnath Singh ji during his address to the Principals at the PHD house,New Delhi on 17th October 2014 during the International Principals Conference, it it had been an excellent speech. This speech may establish a strong basis for the upcoming educational policy of our nation.
    Can you send me the video of the entire session at PHD house as I want to preserve this speech.
