उत्तर
The government organisations play an important role in the functioning of schools and hospitals in India. The private institutions in the field of education and health are guided by the profit motive. Consequently, the price of these facilities provided is high. In such a scenario, government intervention becomes essential to regulate their functioning and make these facilities available to the masses. The government organisations aim at protecting the interest of the weaker and underpriviledged section of the society. Moreover, as education and health sectors have long gestation period, private sector cannot be solely relied upon for their development. Thus, to boost the health and education facilities the government has set up various organisations. The following are some of such important organisations and their functioning.
1. NCERT (National Council of Education Research and Training)- This is responsible for designing textbooks upto standard 12th which form the base for school curriculum in India.
2. UGC (University Grants Commission)- It is the prime funding authority for university education
3. AICTE (All India Council for Technical Education)- It enforces rules and regulations regarding technical and engineering education in India.
4. ICMR (India Council for Medical Research)- It enforces rules and regulations regarding education and research in health sector.
5. National Institute of Health and Family Welfare- This institute is responsible for the promotion of health and family welfare programmes.
