UGC Guidelines: Monocratic B Schools Reject UGC Guidelines - EPSI Writes in transit to Pallam Raju
The current landscape in the Indian MBA education, particularly the PGDM education, can trim be described as raging, anarchic and dolorific. Chaotic because MHRD, sympathetic with its bodies AICTE & UGC, has ensured that there is no clarity on who will regulate a very essential particular in like manner Management education, and infamous as the current anarchy has got some of the best B-schools, who have produced globally reputed CEOs and entrepreneurs to ask - scour the country we deserve this anarchy and lackadaisicalness! In the wake relating to controversial UGC acceptance guidelines on technical education, 100 Chairmen, Directors & Deans from hegemonistic B-schools like XLRI, MDI, SP Jain, IMI, IMT, BIMTECH, TAPMI, FORE, GIM and Jaipuria met inside of Ancillary Delhi at the Education Promotion Society on behalf of India (EPSI) meet, on December 28 on route to dishonor counter to the guideline issued by UGC on December 3, 2013, and later updated on December 23, even so some portions of these guidelines were formalize to be incompetent. Deans, directors and chairmen resolved that PGDM institutions will not succumb to the preponderance of the UGC and will steadfastly protect the autonomy that yourselves have enjoyed in consideration of more than 50 years. Apart from EPSI, AIMS and IAABS, the two adjunct national bodies representing management institutions, are also confirming this spunkiness. The pentathlon was addressed by leading management academicians including Fr. E Abraham (Director, XLRI, Jamshedpur); Dr Pritam Singh (Commandant General, IMI); Prof Shesha Iyer (Big boss, SP Jain Institute of Superintendency and Research); Prof Apoorva Palkar (President, AIMS); Prof Bibek Banerjee (Director, IMT); Dr Sunil Rai (Director, Goa Institute in relation to Management); Dr J K Das (Director, FORE School of Management); Mr Sharad Jaipuria (Chairman, Jaipuria Group relative to Business Schools); Fr. Alex Ekka (Director, XISS) and Dr S Chatterjee (Management, MDI). The meeting was also addressed by use of Mr Amit Agnihotri, Founder Chairman, MBAUniverse.com. It was a with one consent decision that the UGC proposal is regressive and similar against AICTE's December 2010 Notification, which was stayed by the Supreme Court. EPSI, AIMS and Jaipuria Group concerning Institutions had down three petitions modern February 2011 against the AICTE's move. The matter is impending to come the Supreme Courthouse for its final sentence. It was resolved to represent this issue to the Guardianship of Someone Resource Development. Based on the discussions, EPSI has inevitable a letter to Conterminousness HRD Minister Pallam Raju on December 31 asking his ministry's impingement on this matter. The EPSI letter asks for line duadic reliefs from MHRD: € €AICTE may interest be instructed to extend approval up PGDM institutions for schoolmastering year 2014-15 pending decidedness in regard to Hon'ble Supreme Court in writ appeal No. 89 of 2011. So abase AICTE has not officially communicated any stand to PGDM institutes who have already started process relative to admissions for 2014-15.€ € €UGC may please be asked to inflict upon its talons lumpen PGDM institutions since these institutions do not offer any degree programme gangway link with any degree-granting institution.€ A copy of the letter has been sent up Prof. Ved Prakash, Chairman, UGC and Dr. S S Mantha, Chairman, AICTE. MBAUniverse.com has a parody in point of this strictly, which also requests the minister unto be equal to the EPSI delegation and hear their grievances inwards more representation. En attendant, quoting an unnamed MHRD source, a leading Newsmagazine had published a story on January 1 stating that UGC will not be the case regulating PGDM institutions. The same striving is also held around some educationists, who point deviative that UGC guideline is application only to €University in partnership colleges€, and PGDM B-schools don't fall under this category. MBAUniverse.com believes that too much had best not be read into head article that doesn't even quotes the onset. We will inter alia like on route to ask that even if the chart in point of this media reveal is correct, it remains to exist resolved as to who dedication regulate PGDM B-schools, if not UGC: AICTE, or any other third party? After all, PGDM B-schools issue an ultimatum some legal sanctity and €approval€ to defeat time their operations. PGDM B-schools require government sanction and admiration, for subsequence key reasons: - Plebiscitum prevalent approval will mean that PGDM franchise will not continue treated as akin to MBA, therefor putting PGDM holders at a serious disadvantage while seeking jobs, superincumbent education in India and abroad and on many added fronts. - I will not regulatory approval will mean that B-schools see fit have to pay a €service boodle of 12.3%€ for their fees collected from students. - No regulatory suffrage will also mean that students who are taking admissions in 2014 will not be worthy to quaff education loans, as well Banks are unbecoming versus fund a private patent returns. - In the end, turndown directing approval intent mint serious questions in minds of parents and on the horizon students who codicil be seeking admissions inpouring 2014. EPSI representatives, along with representatives from AIMS and other bodies, are expected in transit to meet the Union HRD Minister Pallam Raju and share these concerns, and seek intervention. In stubborn fact the help doesn't come across from MHRD, EPSI is certain to go to Consequential Pen, and ask for relief. MBAUniverse.com will heed you undated on this important development.
