Amidst all this debate on the IIM fee reduction, here is an interesting statistics, Of the world's 862 million illiterate adults, 61% live in India, China, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Wonder if all the hype and media publicity is directed at the right place. If young kids won't get an education, they will never reach a stage where they will be part of an esteemed education institute like the IIMs, reduced fees or no reduced fees!
