Early Times Report
JAMMU, Oct 9: The teaching community of the University of Jammu (JU) today came out openly in support of the Jammu University Teachers' Association (JUTA) call for two days' protest against the hasty implementation of the UGC amended regulations 2013 in front of the Vice Chancellors' Secretariat at the University of Jammu.
The teachers are protesting against the decision of the University authorities to take the UGC fresh guidelines of capping system for the appointments and promotions of teachers in the university, which without any deliberations is being taken as an item before the University Council. Addressing the teaching community, the JUTA President Prof J P Singh Joorel said that the teaching faculty is struggling hard for the effective implementation of the UGC guidelines 2010 by the University of Jammu and in the meanwhile, the UGC has issued fresh guidelines which introduced capping system for the appointments and promotions of teachers. The University of
Jammu has shown exceptional interest for the implementation of amended guidelines without deliberating its effects on the teaching fraternity at any platform. Asserting that all the UGC guidelines should be adopted by the university in toto and not in parts, Prof Joorel criticized the university administration for immediate implementation of stringent guidelines while throwing to the winds the beneficial aspects of the guidelines.
Criticizing the university actions, the teachers, while speaking at the protest, denounced the pro-active approach of University in implementing harsher part of the guidelines forsaking the provisions of the guidelines which are incorporated to provide incentives and gives motivation to teachers to constantly raise the bar of efficiency in teaching and research.
Prof Dalip Singh Jamwal, who is also the teacher representative in the University Council, assured the JUTA members that he would effectively see it that reservations of the teaching community on the matter will be put fourth before Council. The JUTA will observe second day of the protest tomorrow. |
