NGP News- Nagpur University cancels admission of ineligible MCA students


NAGPUR: In a display of decisive, albeit delayed, action, the new team at Nagpur University's exam section led by pro-VC Mahesh Yenkie and controller of examinations (CoE) Vilas Ramteke cancelled the admission of as many as 10 students who were found ineligible for admission the MCA course. Renowned colleges like Ramdeobaba Kamla Nehru College of Engineering, GH Raisoni College, and Wardha's Agnihotri College had admitted these students by charging fees of over Rs 70,000 although the students did not meet the minimum eligibility criterion. TOI had first exposed this issue on July 28,
reporting as to how these colleges run by politicians and education barons had admitted such students since two years.NU not only cancelled admissions of these students but also annulled their third and forth semester MCA exam results after TOI ran a series of reports. Although Yenkie did not answer phone calls, Ramteke confirmed the development to TOI stating that they had already issued letters to colleges in this regard. "We have found about 10-12 students who were illegally admitted by flouting Ordinance No 16 of 2009 that clearly mentioned that a student should score at least 50% aggregate marks in graduation for securing admission to MCA course. These students did not meet the criterion. It was the duty of principals to ensure that such ineligible students were not admitted, but they failed to adhere to it," he said.

NU sources said Ramteke and Yenkie had recommended strict disciplinary action against principals of the erring colleges. However, sources added, the university may not act firmly against the institutions as they are owned by political heavyweights and education barons.

Admission dean at Ramdeobaba College T Singh confirmed that they had received NU's letter and they had issued notices to five students to withdraw their admissions. NU had also advised the colleges to ensure that these 'ineligible' students should be admitted in other courses as per their eligibility. But Singh blamed NU for the delay, disclosing that they had received university's letter on September 28 at 4pm and last date of admission was September 29. "How can they expect that everything will be done in a day? We too have to follow the procedures," he said.

After the scam was unearthed by TOI, NU had served notices to 19 colleges on July 30 asking them to give a list of all 'ineligible' candidates directly admitted to second year after completing their Post Graduate Diploma in Computer Science and Application.
