To promote transparency and accountability, a new web-based application for the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) was launched on Monday by the HRD minister Kapil Sibal.

This application will provide the information and data as filled in by the institutions and will be available for viewing by interested stakeholders.

The AICTE also installed a business intelligence report which will provide the complete and current statistics pertaining to issues like courses, programmes, faculty, students etc. in the public domain in real time. This is expected to improve transparency and also provide useful information to the general public and all stakeholders.

AICTE has also introduced a SMS service that will inform and update the status of the applications made under various categories to AICTE for approval.
