The Margdarshan Scheme 2023-24, a visionary initiative by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), was successfully inaugurated on Wednesday by AICTE Chairman, Prof. T. G. Sitharam. This transformative scheme aims to elevate the standard of technical education nationwide by providing dedicated mentoring and guidance to Mentee Beneficiary Institutes (MBI) through the collaboration of Margdarshan Institutes (MI).

Prof. T. G. Sitharam said: “The Margdarshan Scheme 2023-24 marks a significant stride towards enhancing the quality of technical education in our country. By fostering collaboration and knowledge-sharing between institutes, we are paving the way for holistic growth in the realm of education.”
