dear sirs' .....certain departments and organizations have become the symbolic expressions for the art of corruption .... AICTE has become one such example....the rules are also like that....for instance UGC and AICTE does not have any objection to run private institutions without faculty and without having qualified faculty subject to the Traditional Constraints, that is, arranging bribes as decided by the current market rates....not arranging bribes and bribes which are inadequate is a serious disqualification for granting approval/recognition...
....if the institutional formalities are fulfilled, that is arranging bribes, etc..any unqualified and even a non-existent person may be appointed as a Professor....conversely, even a qualified person with the slightest deviation from the so called APAR or other formalities related to the so-called experience, articles/ papers, so-called preparation of courseware, etc. will be thrown out....
....any how, let us appreciate the Honourable Supreme Court action in bringing true higher education institutions to the service of people....

Courtesy the continuing, increasing and rampant corruption in AICTE - the mediocre and sub-standard management and technical institutions are being given the approvals and approval renewals by AICTE. As per one of the latest surveys, the percentage of such institutions has now increased to 93% as compared to around 80% mentioned by Ishwar Dayal Committee report in the year 2000. Those institutions with merit but not willing to compromise are harassed, throttled, thwarted, undermined and victimised by AICTE in myriad ways like delaying the approval/renewal, asking the concerned state government to lodge FIR, fabricating frivolous complaints to take fraudulent action and even some bizarre ones like denying the approval on concocted excuse like campus being located in the rural area and not in the city. This they do even for those institutions which have been commended by the experts as the role model institutions, totally disregarding the fact that in the process AICTE mandarins are working against the legislative mandate of the AICTE Act by which AICTE itself came into existence and also against the national interest.
One of the examples of this rent-seeking character of AICTE is its system of the yearly approval - where the institutions need to get the renewal of the approval every year from AICTE. It is beyond any logic and rationale as to how any institution which was found suitable for being given approval in a particular year and is not suitable in another year.
One such example of AICTE functioning is the news-item

Give nod to institutes or face action: SC to AICTE
Amit Anand Choudhary| TNN | Jun 1, 2016, 12.03 AM ISTNew Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday came down heavily on the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) for delay in granting approval to technical institutes which caused delay in academic sessions and warned it of dire consequences if it failed to comply with the timeline fixed by the court.
The council found itself at the receiving end for not taking timely decision on approval of 621 technical institutes in Uttar Pradesh. As per the timeline fixed by the apex court, AICTE was supposed to take a decision by April 10 but it delayed the process and passed the order of approval only on May 7.
Taking strong exception to the council not complying with its order and delaying approvals, a bench of Justices P C Ghose and Amitava Roy directed AICTE to file response within a week why it should not be held up for contempt of court.
"Don't take us for granted. We will be extremely ruthless with you. We will call your officers and start contempt proceedings. Don't play hide and seek with us. We are not sitting here for nothing," the bench said and directed the counsel appearing for AICTE to explain why there was a month's delay in granting approvals .
The apex court had in 2012 fixed a schedule for granting approval and affiliation to technical education institutions to ensure that there was no delay in academic session. It had also fixed a schedule for conducting entrance examinations and admission process. It had ordered that admission process must be completed by July 31 and academic session must begin from August 1.
Despite the apex court's order for strict adherence to the schedule for grant of approval as well as for admissions, the direction is not being implemented in letter and spirit, with authorities failing to adhere to the timeline and the colleges having to approach the SC every year against AICTE for not taking decision on time.
Slamming it for working "casually" in granting approval to colleges, the court said there was a serious lapse on the part of AICTE and it may be directed to pay cost for playing with the careers of thousands of students in 621 institutes in UP.
"You change our order every year. How can AICTE tinker with the timeline fixed by us? We are the final authority on this issue. We cannot tolerate defiance of our order and we will take action against officers of AICTE for violating our orders. Let the officers learn a lesson," the bench said.
