Re: [MTC Global] Irani has excessive interference in UGC functioning, says Member

You can only explain freedom to people who have tasted some extent of freedom in there thoughts and life.How can you explain freedom, academic or other sort,who are bonded by there own thoughts of religious feverism of "whats wrong" and complacency of "lets wait and watch" in all the previous responses in this issue.

procedure", etc.

Let me make it clear that we Indians start exploiting situations as
per our convenience referring to the terms like "expression of
freedom", "expression of thoughts", "human rights", "academic
freedom", "caste-ism", etc.

(L) Vasant Rao Dada Patil, Ex-Chief Minster of Maharashtra was
almost an illiterate person but made revolutionary changes in the
higher professional education that nobody could achieve earlier or
even thought! Mostly all of our State or Central Ministers are
hardly educated/trained, unlike foreign countries, in the portfolio
they are handling. How many ministers/Officers can use guns/rifles?
Thus under the present Indian democratic conditions and culture,
these are more or less lame excuses simply designed to generate
hurdles in the path of others, can I term it as uncalled
interference?

Let the present Govt. elected by people function at least for 2-3
years enabling the public to judge their outcomes, we in fact do not
have a good data for comparison as the country is ruled by one party
for a long time. Is the Govt. making blunders? Who are responsible
for our present mess promoting scams, etc.?

Wait and watch. Have tolerance and patience. That is what a real
educated man will work with.

However , I feel we have now come into a Timezone , the education
segment needs to show its dissent in
a collaborative and democratic
way and resist this excessive intervention of Government .
Academic freedom is an important criteria for creating future human
capital, for countries economic welfare in long term. It should not
be comprised by narrow political objectives.

We have to also realize as a community, that no freedom can be
achieved and sustained, without collective effort and peaceful
resistance towards entities who want to disrupt the freedom by force
, and it pretty well fits with the criteria of Academic freedom too.

The University Grants Commission (UGC) member M M Ansari has slammed
the Union Minister for Human Resource Development (MHRD) Minister
Smriti Irani for her â€Å"excessive interference†in the
functioning of
the commission and for taking â€Å"arbitrary and abruptâ€Â
decisions.The
first such attack on the minister by a serving UGC member comes at a
time when she is in the eye of a storm for her ministry’s
decision
to scrap German as a third language in Kendriya Vidyalayas.Ã
¢â‚¬Å"There is
excessive interference from the minister in the UGC. One saw it in
the FYUP issue, or in the way the ministry first decided on the
Swacch Bharat implementation in the education sector and then
informed us and asked us to send a circular to universities, or in
how she announced the Swami Vivekanand scholarship programme for a
single girl child without consulting us. The ministry has been
simply imposing decisions. Any decision of the UGC should emerge
from an exercise within the UGC,†Ansari said.The former CIC
termed
Irani’s decisions as being â€Å"very arbitrary†and Ã
¢â‚¬Å"abrupt†and alleges
she was â€Å"too assertive†. Ansari, who has been a UGC
member since
2012, also questioned Irani’s capabilities to lead the
crucial
education sector.â€Å"The minister has no exposure of the
education
system. She has to depend on notes from bureaucrats, who have been
well-planted by the government in the ministry, and think tanks
comprising those from RSS and BJP. So how will she interact with
academicians if she does not know the issues? It is demoralising for
us,†he said, adding â€Å"all appointments were being made
bypassing
procedures,†reported Indian Express.
