Abstract	21st Century higher education aims to improve society through quality education and research. Productive transformation of teaching, learning, and evaluation processes in higher education institutions (HEIs) is possible through full-fledged implementation of breakthrough-technologies in 21st-Century HEIs. ICT, Artificial Intelligence and Augmented-Virtual Reality present both opportunities and challenges for rural and remote areas in developing and underdeveloped countries. The responsibilities of the leadership of HEIs to promote ICT-integrated pedagogy, staff-training and up-grading of infrastructure are discussed. Prevailing trends, approaches, hurdles, and future requirements of ICT-infrastructure, usage and training are presented based on analysis of data collected through qualitative survey research conducted in India for a population of 583 multidisciplinary respondents. 89.7 percent of respondents are highly qualified with research degrees having experience of 12-35 years. The results are expected to motivate policymakers to enhance sustainable productivity by promoting ICT-digital technologies. The authors discovered lack of motivation, willingness, training opportunities, and facilities as barriers to adopting ICT at HEIs. (As Provided).
