Colleges to work 5 days a week
Chandigarh, August 17 Unlike in the present system where the colleges remain open for six days a week, under the new system, the colleges will follow the PU’s academic calender. The academic calendar (five days a week) is currently being followed by the PU departments and research centres. During a Syndicate meeting held today, members said the colleges had been reporting a thin attendance (as less as 30 per cent), on Saturdays. PU Syndic Dalip Kumar had first proposed the move, stating that most PU-affiliated colleges had postgraduate programmes and there was need for providing ample time to them for preparing presentations. “Teachers in colleges will now find more time for research. When the attendance is already thin on Saturdays, complete closure will help colleges save resources also,” he said. The committee reviewing the matter has been asked to look into the final formalities and submit its report. Submit fee at post offices

41% Class IX students flunk exam
Chandigarh, August 17 Students of government schools on the periphery of the city have turned out to be the worst performers. Of the 1,981 students from government schools who appeared for the exam in the final chance, 801 students have failed. The worst performing schools include Government Model Senior Secondary School (GMSSS), Sector 46, where all 41 students who appeared failed. Similarly, at the GHS, Maloya Colony, all 27 students failed. At the GSSS, Dhanas, of the 67 students who appeared for the exam, only one student passed. At the GMHS, Sector 43, of the 21 students, only one passed. Similarly, at the GHS, Sector 41-A, of the 30 students, only one passed. A large number of students (nearly 50 percent) had failed to clear their first special chance examination held in April. Of the 85 government schools, only seven had got 100 per cent result. Teachers blamed the “lackadaisical attitude” of students for the poor results. “Students are not afraid of failing in the exam and hardy concentrate on their studies,” said a teacher. Principals of several government schools on the periphery said there was huge disparity between the student-teacher ratio and a lack of infrastructure, due to which students’ studies were suffering. A Principal said, “In one section, we have over 100 students. How can a single teacher handle all of them? There is need for creating more infrastructure. The teacher-student ratio is 1:80 in peripheral schools.” Many educationalists whined that even the parents of the students are not serious about the wards studies. “For weeks together, students do not attend classes. We have to send numerous notices and reminders to their houses to call them to the school,” said Principal of Government Model Senior Secondary School, Sector 46, Sudesh Raghav. Educationalists said most of these students could not solve even basic mathematics problems and nor were
they capable of writing a sentence in any language without making a grammatical mistake. Many academics are of the view that the no-fail policy under the RTE Act had to be modified. “Competitive exams have to be held at the end of academic sessions so that students who are unable to grasp certain concepts get another year to cover up.” Government schoolteacher Arvind Rana said, “It’s high time both the Ministry for Human Resource Development and the CBSE changed the no-detention policy till Class VIII and let merit play its role while promoting students.
25% marks mandatory
The new evaluation system for Class IX makes it mandatory for students to score a minimum of 25 per cent marks in both summative assessments (SA-1 and SA-2) put together, which works out to 15 marks out of 60, to qualify for Class X.

Passionate about developing biceps? Ritika Jha Palial Tribune News Service
Chandigarh, August 17 Dieticians in the city are flooded with queries from parents on the risks attached with high protein supplementation, both in natural form (eggs and chicken) and processed form (capsules). At least five such cases of its side effects are being reported every month at city hospitals. “While youngsters are reluctant to seek any medical advice before buying expensive packs of protein supplements sold readily at all gyms in the city, we have been seeing their parents forcibly bringing them to us. We have received complicated cases also where a year-long protein misuse resulted in poor kidney function,” said Dr Madhu Arora, Chief Dietician, GMCH, Sector 32. “This problem is severe. It needs to be tackled in two ways — regular checking of gyms that sell these supplements and organising awareness programmes in schools. The Sports Department should also run campaigns for correct supplementation,” said Dr G Dewan, president of the IMA, Chandigarh. The Department of Dietetics, GMCH, will celebrate Nutrition Week on September 2, offering free consultation and awareness programmes. High uric acid levels In one year, 10 cases at the GMCH have shown high uric acid levels due to protein misuse. All were men aged between 18 and 25. They had a history of high quantity protein supplement intake and also eggs and chicken for over a year without medical advice. 10 eggs or 1 kg chicken in a meal! “Can we have 10 eggs or a kg of chicken in a meal, most of them asked. This is highly dangerous,” said Dr Madhu Arora, Chief Dietician, GMCH.

Chandigarh, August 17 Since the BJP has more votes in the House, the nine nominated councillors will be playing a crucial role in electing the next City Mayor. The BJP councillors, who after a gap of 12 years, won the post of the Senior Deputy Mayor and the Deputy Mayor are now eyeing the post of Mayor. Deputy Mayor and BJP councillor Davesh Moudgil said their party would have an edge over the ruling Congress in the Mayoral elections to be held in 2015. “We have high expectations from the nominated councillors who will be voting for a change.Theirvoting will be based on the performances of the former Mayors”, he said. Arun Sood, a BJP councillor and the Leader of Opposition, said for the next two years, the BJP candidate would hold the Mayor’s seat. SAD councillor Malkiat Singh said that the BJP-SAD alliance would get a boost with another councillor joining the party. “This is going to turn out as a major set back to the Congress”, he stated. The nominated councillors in the recent House meeting, which was chaired by Senior Deputy Mayor Heera Negi had supported her when the MC declared the meeting invalid. Congress Councillor Mukesh Bassi said that the nominated councillors have been supporting the policies and working of the Congress and they were expected to support the party in the next elections too. “Shifting of a councillors loyalty will not affect the party, we will win the Mayor elections next year too, the only difference will be that the Congress will get one less vote”, Bassi said. it is just a single vote which has been transferred to the BJP”, he added. Former Mayor and Congress councillor Subhash Chawla, however, stated that a councillor leaving the party would surely affect the Congress. However, going by the trust shown by the nominated councillors in the Congress party during the past elections, the Congress will certainly win the post. The elections for the post of Mayor will be held on January 1, 2015.

Kirron Kher has a dig at Mayor
City MP Kirron Kher, who was not invited by city Mayor Harphool Kalyan at the recently concluded Teej festival, took a dig at the Mayor at the inauguration function of the Anti-rabies clinic in Sector 38. As the Mayor was welcoming MP Kirron Kher, Kirron said, “Aapne to hamein Teej par bulaya hi nahi. Koi baat nahi Mayor saab, Teej to har saal aati hai aur har saal Mayor change hota hai. Next time, I will be welcomed (You didn’t invite me for Teej, never mind, it comes every year and every year the Mayor also changes).. Mayor Harphool Kalyan stood there speechless. Retd DIG seen at all police functions A retired police Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG) who was in the news for his reluctance to join an eastern state a year before his retirement and ultimately retired from Chandigarh after staying put here, is seen at all major police events of the city these days. While police officials call it a polite gesture on their part to invite the retired DIG, the presence of the officer at too many police events is raising eyebrows. Fake call Inspector Poonam Dilawri, Station House Officer of the Sector 19 police station, was flooded with calls earlier this week after a rumour that her gypsy had been “attacked” and “damaged” in Sector 21. The Inspector was had a trying time clarifying to all that her parked Gypsey was slightly damaged after it was hit by a car accidentally and it was not an ‘attack’. Hunger pangs Students of the Environmental Science Department at the PU, who were on a hunger strike last week, had a bitter experience than others who had resorted to hunger strike on past occasions. The PU authorities, in this case, did not pay much heed to the condition of the protesters and did not even take them to a hospital. Irked, the supporters volunteered to take the protesters to GMSH-16 for glucose intake. After a glucose-break, the two students again sat on hunger strike. Confusion galore At the recent seminar held by the NZCC (North Zone Cultural Centre) on the significant role of “Patiala Gharana” in the enrichment of classical music.The audience was left confused regarding the inception of the gharana, as all the key speakers gave different years, while one speaker said that the gharana was 600-year old, another said it was 150-year old. Security threat The Haryana Governor and his family remained under a security cover even while offering prayers and performing yagna at the Mata Mansa Devi shrine, on Saturday. The VVIP family of Kaptan Singh Solanki remained busy in prayers while their security guards were busy pleasing their bosses. Slip of tongue Dushyant Chautala, Member of Parliament from Hisar, who was at the PU recently for INSO-12 foundation day, while speaking to students goofed up. He thought it was a rural audience and addressed them as “taus” which means uncle in Haryanvi language. He was quick to rectify and said “bhaio aur bheno”(brothers and sisters).

Enforce rules strictly to avoid bad blood during poll
Students’ election-related violence keeps recurring on the Panjab University campus. While some residents question the validity of the poll, others maintain that a stringent code of conduct along with a slew of other measures will help create a congenial environment.
PU should become
a model varsity There is a need to employ stringent pre- and post-election code of conduct. Outsiders must be refrained from entering the campus and canvassing for student parties. The authorities should be given powers to disqualify the candidates who refuse to follow the code of conduct. Panjab University has been ranked among the top universities; so, it should be a model for other universities in every aspect. Gurparteek
Kaur, Chandigarh
Authorities must act fairly
It seems students indulging in violence have no fear of the law. The university and police should act tough against violators. Participation of outsiders, who are the main troublemakers, must be completely banned. The varsity must act in an unbiased way, without the interference of politicians.
Open house question
There exists no system to take care of the ailing persons abandoned on the roadside across the
tricity. Left by their loved ones, they continue to be ignored by government agencies, who keep on passing the buck. What can be done to evolve a foolproof system to help such destitute persons? Send your comments (in not more than 100 words) along with your passport-size photograph (in JPG format) to
openhouse@tribunemail.com. Vidya Sagar
Garg, Panchkula
VC must use his authority
The onus of conducting the student council elections without any fear or favour rests entirely on the university authorities. The Vice-Chancellor must use his authority to ensure the elections are conducted as per the rule book. SC
Luthra, MHC Manimajra
Go for indirect elections
Violence ahead of elections is not a new thing for the PU authorities and police. Such incidents have been happening in the past as well, due to mismanagement on the part of both. The authorities must take such incidents seriously and find an amicable solution that includes opting for indirect elections. Sat Pal
Kansal, Chandigarh
Elections more about gaining political mileage
The Panjab University Campus Student Council elections are more about gaining political mileage than working for students’ welfare. The student council must be created through indirect elections in order to highlight students’ problems. The code of conduct is grossly violated by student parties. Rallies on the campus, pasting of posters on public property and frequent fights between different groups are taking place at the expense of studies. The university authorities must include the code of conduct in the admission forms. Wg Cdr Jasbir Singh Minhas (retd.), Mohali
Unions doing nothing for students’ welfare
There is no place for student unions that are in any case doing nothing for the welfare of students. Such unions only detract students from studies. However, if there is a need to maintain students’ representation, the authorities should not only draft a stringent code of conduct, but also enforce it strictly for the students’ safety and institute’s dignity. MPS
Chadha, Mohali
Nurture healthy competition
Stringent pre- and post-code of conduct are needed to avoid violence during the elections at Panjab University. Some mechanism needs to be followed to nurture healthy competition. Also, participation of outsiders should be banned. Priya Darsh
Growar, Mohali
Cancel poll if student leaders flout norms
If the student leaders are not following the set norms, the elections must be cancelled. Students taking admission to the varsity must be asked to sign a declaration that they will follow all rules and regulations or be ready to face rustication. Opinder Kaur
Sekhon, Chandigarh
Expedite poll process
The entire election process must be completed within 10 days, commencing from the date of filing of nomination paper to the date of declaration of results. Campaigning should take place during this period only. The authorities must ensure that candidates are not having any previous criminal record or have not been subjected to any disciplinary action by the university. Also, the candidature must be cancelled if anyone exceeds the expenditure limit. Sanjay
Srivastava, Chandigarh
Follow Lyngdoh panel recommendations
Provisions and recommendations of the Lyngdoh Committee should be kept in mind and any deviance from these should be dealt with strictly. The amount of liquor being supplied should be checked as well. Possession of any kind of weapon should not be permitted. Aishwarya,
Mohali
Better vigil needed
Incidents of violence before and after the student council elections must be stopped. Measures such as banning of student bodies affiliated to political parties, limiting the period of election campaigning, restricting rallies, strictly monitoring the entry of vehicles on the campus, installing CCTV cameras and round-the-clock deployment of PCR vehicles should be adopted whole-heartedly. Sanjeev Kumar,
Chandigarh
Ensure congenial environment
To avoid violence during students’ elections, the authorities must ensure a congenial environment. The police must remain alertness to nip the evil in the bud. Moreover, voting can be conducted in classrooms over a week’s period. RK
Kapoor, New Jersey (USA)
Eliminate bad blood between groups
Seeing the election-related violence on the university year after year, the introduction of a stringent pre- and post-code of conduct is a sine qua non for peaceful elections and responsible leadership. Also, it will help eliminate feud and bad blood that is created between different groups and further help in creating a congenial atmosphere. Ajit Singh,
Canada
Ban open canvassing
The election process should be completed in the minimum possible time. Open canvassing and public meetings should be banned. Emphasis should be laid on online campaigning. The introduction of indirect election process might ensure violence-free polls. Sukhpal Singh,
Chandigarh
Keep all political parties at bay
The primary fault lies with political parties that have made educational institutes their battle grounds. Political leaders and workers should not be allowed to enter the university campus and the student elections must be kept a low-key affair. Also, we need strict pre- and post-poll code that debars students involving in violence from studying in any Indian university. Ranju,
Chandigarh
Don’t allow student bodies to dictate terms
Elected student bodies must not be allowed to influence decision making of the university or college authorities. These bodies are more political than academic. Once elected, these student leaders try to prove their worth to their political masters and end up propagating their party agendas. Col RD Singh
(retd.), Ambala Cantt

Admission under reserved category Tribune News Service
Chandigarh, August 17 The complainant alleged that at the computer science and engineering branch of UIET, a seat with All India Rank 27,653 has been allotted under the SG category. However, it should have been allotted under the general category. “Similarly another candidate with All India Rank 49,760 has been allotted seat in chemical engineering, under the SG category. This candidate should have been allotted a general category seat,” the complainant stated. The admission rule has been clearly flouted as the admission to the SG category in any discipline can only start once the general category merit is exhausted. This has resulted in loss of 2 seats under the SG category, the complaint stated. The coordinator for Joint Admission Committee (JAC), US Shivhare, however, said, “The admissions have been conducted as per the rules and due procedures have been followed.” JAC denies accusations
The admissions have been conducted as per the rules laid down by the university and due procedures have been followed to allot the
seats.
