Early Times Report
Jammu, Dec 4: Students of MAM PG College under the banner of National Secular Forum (NSF) boycotted classes against the alleged failure of Jammu University authorities to take action against the private colleges violating the norms with impunity. A large number of NSF activists led by City Unit President Pushpinder Singh assembled at front gate of MAM PG College and blocked the road for some times. They raised slogans against the Director College Development Council/ Vice Chancellor Jammu University for failing to take action against the private colleges which violate the university statutes, despite the fact he was aware about the violations. "The university has admitted that private colleges had been violating the rules and the matter was reported to the Vice-Chancellor who has failed to take action against the violators," Singh said. He alleged that it was an open secret that private colleges were running ETT institutions and Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) centers in the same premise where B.Ed course is being run without the permission of the varsity. "It raises doubts in the minds of the people and the VC, JU should make it clear as to why he didn't take action and remained silent on the whole issue," he asked. Singh demanded the Chancellor should conduct a thorough inspection of all private colleges by constituting a high-level panel to identify the "violators" and all such institutions should be disaffiliated with immediate effect to send a strong message around. "We will not tolerate the shielding of corrupt officers. We demand that they should be shunted out from the varsity administration to restore credibility and transparency on the campus. The authorities should shun the pick and choose policy and initiate action against all the blue eyed people," Singh demanded. He alleged that there were instances where the professors and officers got appointments well before posts were created for them. "There are several cases where professors have been appointed without checking their eligibility criteria. There is a need to conduct a fresh inquiry to identify and punish these people. The University authorities have been adopting dallying tactics to shield the officers due to political pressure. The Vice-Chancellor should come clean on the issue and take strict action against them," Singh said. Among those who were present during the protests included Ankit Sharma, Deepak Thakur, Sandeep Manhas, Hargeet Singh, Sunny Parihar, Gourav Sharma,Rahul Singh,Umar, Akamat, Shubham Khajuria, Rohit, Sanjeev Kumar, Narayan Singh, Sandeep, Shahil Sudan and Babber Batt. |
