Why AICTE made the specific online e-resources mandatory?
AICTE has made some e-resources mandatory for all AICTE approved institution. It would cost around Rs. 9 Lakhs to 13 Lakhs. Is this decision beneficial to users (students + staff) of institution or the foreign companies those are the publishers / distributors / sellers of these specific products? Does it not seem the play behind the carton?
It would be justified If AICTE makes mandatory availing the e-journals in a given qty., but the motive of this decision seems doubtful.

AICTE take a decision to e-resources made mandatory for all approved institutions. I would like to say that subscription of e-resources must be mandatory for all institutions but condition must be change. It should compulsory for all institutions to subscribe minimum 5 good e-resources of the subject studied in the institution and a list of subscribe must send to AICTE every year.

Dear All,
my EducationTimes.com hosted by The Times of India has also published a news on it's poratal that Mr.H. Chaturvedi, Director, Birla Institute of Management Technology has also wrote a letter in this regard. I have quoted some lines below from that news.
In a letter to the HRD minister, Birla Institute of Management Technology director H Chaturvedi said, “I do not understand why a government body must mandate the purchase of certain journals printed by specific publishers? We demand an inquiry into this matter.”
Please go through the link given below for full News.
