Re: [MTC Global] Academicians protest against creation of Gujarat State Higher Education Council

Respected sirs' .....political interference will always be there....as long as there is a need for STATE and Government, there exists political parties and political interference in STATE controlled sub-systems which includes Education sub-system....

....more than political interference, group rivalry among Professors is playing havoc with the careers' of students and academic standards....barring few exceptions here and there, university recruitment to award of Ph.D. degrees are being under the influence of Professors' group politics....
.... now, it has taken such an ugly turn that even to get selection into a private college, one shall have a favorable professors' group in university, otherwise he will not get suitable teaching opportunity....

.... sir, did any politician asked these professors to act that way.... certainly not..... if the Academicians want, they can fight even against people like Adolf Hitler....History proved that, several Academicians were killed by Hitler in their University premises itself....whenever a particular group is being affected by the political influence of other group.... they cry .....otherwise, they remain silent and indifferent with the rowdy and nasty political interference

....To change the external world, the Academicians shall change first....

.... Dr Vishnumurty Narra, PSU officer, Hyderabad....

Protest against Gujarat government's move to form a 'Gujarat State Higher Education Council' has reached the Knowledge Consortium in Ahmedabad, where Gujarat University academicians are planning to oppose the move.

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.
