| NSF protests against JU vice chancellor, seeks clear stand on UIET issue | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 24: Strongly condemning the State Government for usurping the University College of Engineering and Technology (UIET) established by the University of Jammu (JU), the National Secular Forum (NSF) today strong protest demonstration against the Vice Chancellor Prof Ramji Dass Sharma for facilitating the same and asked him to clear his stand over the issue. Addressing the gathering here today, National Secular Forum (NSF) Sr Leader, Anshu Sharma said, "It was not possible for the state government to take over the asset created by JU without the consent of the Vice Chancellor and astonishingly, instead of the resisting government move, he facilitated the dilute of varsity's autonomy. He said UIET was established by University of Jammu last year and started courses in the block opposite Directorate of Distance Education. A batch of 64 students is currently undergoing the studies in UIET and their future is almost uncertain with the interference of the government and criminal silence maintained by the Vice Chancellor, Rishikesh Rana added. "It was the responsibility of the Vice Chancellor to watch the interest of students enrolled in UIET but he does the otherwise. The students took admission in UIET because of it being constituent college of JU and not an affiliated one. Now, any attempt to shift these students to other colleges would tantamount to playing with their future", he added. Anshu Sharma expressed strong resentment over Govt's move and called it an attempt to encroach upon University's autonomy. He said certain quarters within the University administration for their personal gain facilitated this 'dacoity'. The University was already in process to establish an Engineering College, and the matter was taken up with RUSA, but the government played a trick with us, he added. |
