Top colleges in Nagpur for BCA

NAGPUR: Nagpur University on Thursday decided to take control of admissions to professional courses like BBA and BCA from private college

managements. The admissions to these courses will henceforth be conducted through a centralised process.

The decision was taken in an emergent meeting of University’s Management Council. “There were many complaints of irregularities in admissions in colleges offering these professional courses. Therefore, we have decided to take admissions in our hands and make it transparent and systematic. We have formed a study group under Dr Ved Prakash Mishra who will submit his report in a month,” vice-chancellor S N Pathan said.

The Council also decided to set up a fee authority and abolish the uniform fee structure for all courses. “(Uniform fee structure) was unfair for institutes offering good facilities, infrastructure and faculties compared to colleges that lacked all of this. In this case too, a committee under Dr Mishra has been appointed to study the pros and cons and submit a report in a month,” Pathan said.

The three member panel of police and university officers completed a security audit of university premises on the directions of commissioner of police following February 20 attack by the BJYM activists on its offices. It submitted its report which will be tabled at the Council’s next meeting. Moreover, the issue of NAAC awarding ‘B’ grade to NU was also discussed.

The VC informed that the Council had accepted Board for Colleges and University Development (BCUD) chairman A D Chaudhari’s report on Jagdamba Mahavidyalaya that had illegally admitted students that led to BJYM attacks. “Following principle of natural justice, we have decided to issue a show cause notice seeking explanation from them,” he said. On the issue of action against Ballarpur-based Guru Nanak College for irregularities, Pathan said strict action would be initiated after taking legal opinion.
