Higher education is becoming increasingly important as India moves closer to its 2047 aim of being a developed nation, with this transformational journey centered around it. The "Viksit Bharat" vision is a complete plan that includes social, cultural, and technological aspects of growth, rather than just an economic goal. Higher education institutions (HEIs) in India are pivotal in this context, acting as incubators of knowledge, innovation, and skilled human capital. Therefore this two day National Conference on ‘India Towards Viksit Bharat @ 2047’seeks to address these challenges by bringing together key stakeholders from academia, industry, government, and civil society. It aims to establish a forum for thoughtful discussion, collaborative problem-solving, and strategic planning.

The main objectives of this Conference are:

• Formulate Policy Recommendations: Engage in discourse and formulate policy suggestions that can propel changes in higher education funding, governance, and quality control.
• Utilize Technology to promote e-learning: Investigate methods to improve learning results, accessibility, and efficiency in higher education by integrating technological innovations.
• Encourage Industry-Academia Collaboration: To guarantee that education is in line with the changing demands of the stakeholders and to encourage innovation, fortify the connections between academic institutions and industry.
• Ensure Inclusivity : Develop strategies to make higher education more inclusive, ensuring that all sections of society, including marginalized groups, benefit from educational advancements.
