Indian education system has been awarding degrees but applied knowledge is missing among people, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said in Mumbai today. He observed that universities which follow the path of innovation would survive in future. "I think our entire society for around 5,000 years is based only on knowledge, and whenever we have stopped passing knowledge to other generations, we have faced a lot of hardships," Fadnavis said while addressing a gathering here after inaugurating 'Maitreyi', a new hostel building for girl students of Somaiya Vidyavihar.
