Abstract: Higher Education plays an important role in the development of nation. It helps the members of the society to get lives, to develop well and to improve the strength of the nation. There is pursuit of truth and excellence in man and only the higher education can direct the right path of it. The objectives of higher education are to promote welfare of individuals as to strengthen the nation. It is to inculcate the high standards of conduct and behaviour and integrity of personality in the individual members.

The topic of my article revolves around the role of RUSA in academic reforms of Indian Higher Education System. With the development of technology and changing social demands, our higher education system need to be contemplated and perpetually evolved to meet the new challenges that our daily life present. Rashtriya Uchchatar Shiksha Abhiyan (RUSA), or National Higher Education Mission, is the key implementing initiative of the Indian government's 12th Five Year Plan for higher education. Its action plans are centered on two objectives: equity-based growth and improvements in teaching, learning and research which are the key challenges of the Indian higher education system.

It is all these components I would like to touch in my article which may be useful.
