An open letter to the

Members, Executive Council (AMU)

Academic Rejuvenation of AMU is a much talked agenda these days. But the piecemeal manner in which the objective is sought to be accomplished is hardly convincing. Rather, they are provocative in nature.

Most of the members are endorsing [or advocating for] the idea of placing lecturers in senior scale through Selection Committee, rather than through Screening Committee. Quite often it is suicidal to disagree with POWER/Feudal Lords, more so in AMU. Yet, I am raising my first question:

why does EC need to revise this particular rule of the 5^th pay which is just about to expire. [Some of these members got their own promotion under the screening process]. The UGC and AMU ordinances are explicit about the criteria: Lecturers of 4 years of service if with Ph D, [or 5 years if M. Phil, or 6 years, if only M.A and UGC-JRF/NET] and an Orientation Course [besides Orientation those without Ph D should have done Subject Refresher Course as well] will be placed in senior scale. It is, therefore, absolutely futile to spend public money on the allowances of the experts of selection committees, besides inordinate delay in the placement.

No doubt Diwali is a festival of lights, peace, harmony and poetry. Our people are engaged in celebrating it with their family and friends. Who cares for those are living far away from the main stream of sour society due to their physical or mental disabilities? Diwali is a celebration of good over evil and real meaning of Diwali is to clear the darkness from the society.
