Hey,
Why sign a petition on a third party website, when you can send suggestions to govt. until July 31? There is lot of scope for Open Access in education, but suggesting them is the best way, if it lacks few things as you probably are not opposing the entire policy.

Use of proprietary software would become very expensive and make the implementation unviable. Therefore, Free and Open Source software have been suggested throughout the curricula. The use of FOSS applications will also obviate software piracy and enable customisation to suit local needs.
A software environment favouring a pedagogy of learning which promotes active learning, participatory and collaborative practices and sharing of knowledge is essential to nurture a creative society. Free and Open Source Software – operating system and software applications will be preferred in order to expand the range of learning, creation and sharing.
