AMU: Four years of Azis: Complete failure. I-Academics.

Most tragic period in the history but Azis claimed his performance satisfactory. How can he sit on judgment for his own doings?

Let us, therefore, have a look at the academics first as the financial and administrative matters have secondary importance in a University;

Session 2010 – 2011: A Sample Survey:
1. No admissions are made in Ph. D. courses in most of the Faculties but the VC claimed third position amongst Central University, is false and totally baseless. The VC is requested to provide a proof.
2. Mandatory 180 days (for years length courses BA and SSSC) and 90 days (for Masters degree) of actual teaching not achieved and exams held on time, a fraud.
Naturally, the courses, were not completed and no questions are asked from the untaught courses, nobody bothers about it like the past.
3. VC managed the award of a Ph. D. degree (in law) to one of his political supporter in 2010, who got himself registered in 1992 and had not completed his mandatory stay of two years at Aligarh and his admission had lapsed after five years in 1997 it self, which could not be revived as per rules yet the degree was awarded.
4 Requirement of 75% attendance has been reduced to 30% illegally; devalued degrees and adversely affected prospects in the job market, to accommodate 200 odd and under pressure from pampered Students Union and self styled leaders.
5. Promoted copying in examinations by shielding the wrong-doers through the most unexpected direct intervention of the Students Union leaders and others, never witness before. No action followed to stop this against the pampered and encouraged students used to terrorize the campus.
6. Supplementary exam in B.D.S (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) a prestigious course, introduced by the VC who has no authority, to appease rowdies, which threatened de-recognition of degree.
7. Copying has been alleged at various illegally established Entrance Test Centres out sideAligarh.
8. Money changed hands in a big way in admissions in LLB and MBA at the two AMU Centres as alleged. CBI probe shall reveal it all.
9. At the two blessed AMU Centres at Murshidabad (constituency of Pronab Mukerjee) and Malappuram, the classes (though totally illegally) commenced from 1st March, 2011 and the session is to terminate in July while the session of AMU commenced from Aug.2010 – May 2011. (information supplied under RTI)
As such, the AMU Centres shall hold exams after just four months as against nine months at A.M.U.
10. On top of it all, at the AMU Centres summer vacations have now been announced from 22ndJune to 15th July (Press report on 26.6.11) (V.C. accorded approval who has no authority as rules do not exist.

Board of Studies of Management declined to appoint examiners without which examiners cannot be appointed.
11. The so called AMU Centres are; totally misconceived illegal un-authorized and anti-University and it is totally misleading to claim that concessions could be extended to Muslims. The things are highly manipulative, unprecedented politically motivated under pressure from Congress to mislead Muslims for electoral gains. It is a fraud and assumes the size of a scam. (the silence of Muslims as a whole is most disgusting, alarming and suicidal). The proposed amendments of the Statutes have not been passed by the Parliament. As such, the Centres are patently illegal.
12. The Faculty of Science where lights used to remain ‘on’ throughout the nights is thrown into frightening darkness as soon as the sun sets in as also it looks deserted in the afternoons.

The Departments of Studies are starving for funds, and laboratories are in acute shortage of sophisticated equipments, books etc.

In the 5th plan, out of the 1300 crores requisitioned merely 100 crores were promised by the ‘friendly Govt.’ to the ‘loyal VC’ despite his dreams and tall claims of achieving international standards.

These facts do not only refute the tall claims and nail the lies & exaggerations of the VC but also they point clearly that the VC has neither the will not the ability to administer the affairs of the University effectively and sincerely.
Write-up on financial and administrative aspects shall follow.
