Indian PM Narendra Modi has reiterated his commitment to qualitative changes in the education sector.

He has also expressed his happiness over improvement in performance of Indian universities in QS World University Rankings.

Responding to the CEO and Managing Director of QS Quacquarelli Symonds Ltd, Nunzio Quacquarelli about continued improvement in performance of Indian universities in QS World University Rankings, the Prime Minister posted on X: "Over the last decade, we have focused on qualitative changes in the education sector."

"This is reflected in the QS World University Rankings. Compliments to the students, faculty and institutions for their hard work and dedication. In this term, we want to do even more to boost research and innovation," he said.

Modi made the remark at a time when he is scheduled to take oath as the Prime Minister of India for the record-equalling third term.

His Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA won the Lok Sabha polls this week despite a strong challenge from the opposition's INDIA alliance.
