The Haryana government has approved a Rs.115 crore new scheme known as “Accreditation of Government Polytechnics in the state under the Swarn Jyanti Scheme” for accreditation of all the 23 existing government polytechnics functioning from their own campuses. The scheme will be implemented in a phased manner in four years from 2016-17 to 2019-20.

While stating this on Friday, Education Minister Ram Bilas Sharma said that the accreditation of the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) is necessitated to ensure the quality, so that the output from the polytechnic system is effectively and immediately placed in the industry or market.
