India trails behind several countries in terms of student-teacher ratio in higher education as it is 24:1, which is lower than 19:1 in Brazil and China. India's ratio has also turned out to be lower than Sweden, Britain, Russia, and Canada. The results become overburdening for teachers teaching a large group of students. The faculty shortage has worsened as the student enrollment is only getting higher than the teachers.
