JAMMU, June 16: In a significant order, State High Court has directed the Sher-e-Kashmir College of Education to fulfill the statutory requirement of conducting and completing 180 teaching days so that the admission of 142 students, which is hanging in fire due to inaction on the part of College, could be regularized.
The University of Jammu took a specific stand through their counsel Wasim Sadiq Nargal in both the petitions filed by the College and submitted that the students were not attending the college regularly and the College has prepared a false attendance.
It was further submitted that in order to ascertain factual position, University of Jammu constituted a committee to monitor the class work of BEd students of Sher-e-Kashmir College. From the perusal of the inspection reports, it came to fore that there was hardly any student present during the college hours and accordingly, University didn’t regularize the admission of 140 students admitted unauthorizedly by the College.
When both the petitions came up for hearing before High Court, the stand of University got vindicated and Justice Virender Singh directed the College to fulfill the statutory requirement of teaching days as per the statue of the University and fulfill all other requirements.
The Monitoring Committee was directed to monitor the classes and students directed to present themselves physically by marking their attendance as only in such eventuality their admissions can be regularized and the examination conducted.
The High Court also directed the University to take steps to conduct the examination of 142 students preferably within one month only when the College does the needful to the satisfaction of monitoring committee.
