[1] Get subject matter experts & create a digital repository (regularly updated):
- This is not a super expensive solution.
- If authorities feel otherwise, I am happy to do it on my own and won't charge a penny.
- Create this material across different languages.

[2] Distribute this digital library as an "add-on" to the teaching that goes on in every school:
- This somewhat bridges the gap between "elite" school and "non-elite" schools.
- Educate parents that this is a government approved go-to library.
- Ban private coaching.

[3.1] Modify the nature of competitive exams:
- Studying for 12 hours for exams that don't even guarantee a job is a pointless exercise.

[3.3] Create advanced standardised tests (similar to GMAT, GRE, SAT) -- with multiple attempts allowed.
There should be independent testing done to verify the correlation between [the test] & the [job at hand].
Making a test harder and harder is pointless exercise.

[3.4] Everyone who clears the baseline (eg. let's say top 5% ile) gets to pursue that degree.
