Education is such a serious and important matter which effect the humanity , civilization and future generations but political interference seems to be growing......
-----------------------------------------------
The protest, which began from MS University, has reached Gujarat University, where academic and administrative staff joined hands in protest at the state government's move.
The employees have alleged that the government through the Bill - which was passed 'unanimously' in the absence of opposition Congress members, but has not been signed into law by the governor - aims to fulfil the hidden agenda of the Common Universities Act, which has failed to see light of day since 2005.
The protests at MSU saw more than 100 academicians unanimously opposing the absolute powers the Bill vests in the state government in matters of higher education. A similar protest was also seen at Hemchandra Acharya North Gujarat University.
According to experts the new Bill once becomes law will affect the quality of education as powers are taken away from university vice chancellors, who are academic experts. Experts feel Section 15 of the Gujarat State Higher Education Council Bill, 2016, which gives complete power to the government, should be scrapped.
"The government in a bid to take control of universities in the state, got a crucial Bill passed in the Assembly, which, if it's cleared by the Governor, will give sweeping powers to the state government and curtail the authority of vice-chancellors," said Kirit Patel, a member of the academic council of North Gujarat University, reported ToI.
