摘要：Managing higher education institutions in India is just like a junction, how to show the path to the futurenation builder of our country. There are very hue and cry situations/difficulties in present Indian highereducation about what to do and what not to do. It becomes so sensitive that it creates conflict in interand intra management of higher education institutions. In recent years there have been debates andcontroversies regarding management of higher education institutions so as to improve their efficiency.And this has attracted the attention of academics and researchers in the field of higher education.

It has also focused on the criteria to develop aparticipative culture, through the mechanisms of decentralization, and managing the faculty and stresson the process of generating and managing resources along with the institution support system, and theprocess of self-renewal
