The review was carried out by minister for textiles, commerce and industry Piyush Goyal in the presence of Upendra Prasad Singh, secretary in the ministry of textiles, according to an official release.
The minister urged NIFT to introduce hybrid courses and short-term and skill development courses to expand its reach.
Each NIFT student could adopt an artisan, which would go a long way in diversifying products and improving quality and processes, he suggested.
He also proposed exploring the possibility of converging some of the projects with similar existing ones.
