Apart from the central open universities, there are distance education institutes in most of the Indian states. The state distance learning institutes are serving a very important cause in India as they allow a person from the remotest corner of the country to pursue higher education in a course of his or her choice. Without these State Distance Learning Institutes, the percentage of people pursuing higher education would have been much lower than the existing rate in India. The number of distance learning Institutes and the courses that they offer differ from state to state.Therefore, on this page, we have attempted to list state wise all those universities that are providing distance education. We have tried our best to provide as authentic information as possible regarding distance education courses and distance learning colleges in India, but in case there is some discrepancy, then please do write to us about it.
We would appreciate any kind of effort that would improve the quality of this page, a page that focuses on distance learning in India.
