First of all, Happy Independence Day to all my Indian Friends and followers. This post is about an Indian pioneer in online learning, namely NPTEL. 
National Programm on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) provides E-learning through online Web and Video courses in Engineering, Science and humanities streams. The mission of NPTEL is to enhance the quality of Engineering education in the country by providing free online courseware. All videos of NPTEL include the lectures of Indian professors in IITs and IISc and they can be found either on NPTEL homepage or at their YouTube page. On Youtube, the Video Courses are organised as PLAYLISTS under the following Categories:
