Major cause of less enrolment appears to be future prospects. 5-6 years back most of the students had only goal of doing B.Ed and getting placed as a science teacher somewhere (easy way out) the thing which is now passe.

If somebody dared to think beyond they have no options but venture out of the state. Where they face tough competition from their counter parts.

Quality of higher education (beyond 12th and of course above B.Ed) needs to be looked into. Above all school & board authorities must come forward to guide pupils about array of options i.e. engineering, IT, bio-tech, pharma, research, etc and not only B.Ed. which gradually will create the desired talent pool to encourage private sector also to come forward in this direction.
