New Delhi, Mar 16:
Expressing strong reservations over the foreign university bill, CPI today said that the UPA government was creating "another SEZ-- Special Education Zone" which would harm the interests of weaker sections and lead to commercialisation of education.
"This is the surest way to exclude a vast majority of weaker sections, leading to unprecedented disparity in the field of education. Education is going to be an issue where a new confrontation of haves and have-nots is going to emerge," CPI National Secretary D Raja said.
The government's attempt would also result in education becoming a commodity and commercialisation and privatisation of it, he said, adding no foreign university was going to come to India without a profit motive.
