Education is one of the most crucial factors of socioeconomic development in India. Achievement of sustained and equitable human development is an urgent need and a challenge before the present Indian Society. It is the quality of higher education that decides the quality of human resources of the country. However, higher education in India in general and in Assam in particular has not been able to perform its optimum role in the direction of human resources development. Though there have been considerable progresses in all walks of life over the last few decades, large sections of people in North-East India, especially in Assam still live below the line of poverty and have inadequate access to education and economic resources. Present paper is an attempt to highlight the major challenges of higher education in Assam for development of human resources and endeavors to find an answer and solve the key problems.
