Human Resource Development Minister Smriti Irani Saturday said that a new credit transfer system from class 9 up till the Ph.D level will be presented on Nov 11.

"You will be pleased to know that on Nov 11 we will be presenting to the nation a credit transfer system from class 9 onward up to PhD, which...gives you enough credits to get back into the university system...," she said.

Irani was addressing a gathering of student leaders at Lead On, an inter-school leadership summit organised at the Tagore International School, Vasant Vihar here.

She said that she is trying to evolve a concept called "Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat" (one India, best India) which focuses on changes in education to take India to the next level, and appealed them to chose a five-member body from among themselves to "sit with us on Nov 17 and tell us what students want from India's new education policy".

The summit, in its seventh year, saw participation from around 41 schools from Delhi and the national capital region.
