Why is the list important?

However, none of the major Indian cities made it to the top 100 global list. This was extremely disappointing and shocking. Even though India boasts to have a good student culture, apparently the cities are not recognised on a global level. Mumbai did get a rank of 118, Delhi a rank of 132, and Bangalore at 147.

The ranking took into account 100,000 survey responses from students along with other factors.
To make India a truly global destination, there needs to be a focus on making our cities more student-friendly and desirable.
