There is vast difference in teachings and practical life.When an young boy completes his education,he finds that what ever was taught in the class,is irrelevant in practical life unless u have some Godfathers.Is it the scenario world over?
Fake degrees provide better jobs/positions.
Your first proposition might be true in some cases not the latter. Persons with fake degrees might get better jobs and positions but can loose the job any moment too.
Look for the name of some scientists in the given link:

Can anyone say that they got Nobel prize because of political lobbying or because of help from Godfathers ?
Quality and credibility still matter.
Thank u Dr Sinha.U r very correct that no universally acceptable answer exists.But u may agree with me about the deteriorating condition of education from Primary to PG level,which in my opinion has to be brought in the knowledge of our scientific community and try to find out possible ways to solve the problem.
Still,there are many good institutions,good students and true teachers too.But in majority of the cases particularly the self-financed education- imparting institutions are merely selling degrees like a business commodity.In some cases,I have come across some institutions where only one M Sc(Zoology) teacher is teaching MSc(Zoolgy) and M Sc(Botany)both and these students pass with high percentage and get even Ph.D degree.Such students make huge number and in due course of time put pressure on Govt to give them job.Role of State level Service Commissions is already known to people.
We must find out some way to bring back our youth to main track
Yes, I agree. The onus is on us. And I have initiated my bit, despite being a non existent entity in the academic field!
People like me are with u in this mission.Best of Luck
