This paper explores immediate constrains and its expected solutions of two year B.Ed. and M.Ed. programme carried out in Gujarat and particularly in India. The Justice Verma Commission had suggested wide range reforms in Teacher Education which the new Regulations 2014 have addressed. Under the light of Justice Verma commission report and resulting NCTE regulation 2014, the major constrains are faculty, financial crunches, and enhancement of infrastructural facilities on the part of govt. as well as self-financing teacher education institutions. The aspirant students seeking admission in teacher education programme are burdened with heavy fee with the extended duration which ultimately ceases them to pursue their desired course. These and many other constrains are taken into discourse for their better solutions for the betterment of the teacher education.
