Triple Helix-1 Old paradigm .Overpowering role of State.

Triple Helix-2 State as Coordinator between Academia & India.

Triple Helix-3 Current models where the roles overlap.(Rest is clear in slide).

Indian Universities /Colleges have to learn to graduate to Triple Helix -3. Requires lots of autonomy. Even now with existing constraints one can start. There are successful quasi-models all over India.
