ZHCETians sharing their views at the RIGHT TO EXPRESS:

LOKPAL BILL & CORRUPTION The country is in pieces. Unrest among people is common now. Reasons??There are so many issues and changes in motion now and we Indians are not so much used to digestion of CHANGE! Corruption is not a new phenomenon. It was always out there in some other form. We all have heard the version “POWER LEADS TO CORRUPTION”. But corruption is not only confined to power. The most common form of corruption which we encounter on daily basis is bribe. Bribe is the most venomous form of corruption. It is the only form of corruption which involves the active participation of the Commons. We want something done very quickly, we pay more amount than officially required. If we want someone’s favor in a issue we pay him with extra money. I think you will agree with me in saying that this is the story of everyone. At root level we are the one spreading corruption. So even if system changes we need to change ourselves too. Now coming to Lokpal Bill. Can a bill or law curb something that has become a part and parcel of life? The answer is definitely NO. Don’t agree? Here’s an example. We all know that how much harmful smoking is. Even Govt. has put a ban on smoking in Public Places. But who follows? The ban will never work if it does not involve people’s participation. That is what I am saying for corruption. First we should change OURSELVES. Only then the law will effectively work. Now coming to Anna Hazare the Anti-Corruption Crusader. When the country was boiling with rise in price (the thing worth worrying was that the prices of luxurious items was falling and those of essential commodities was increasing) came a Messaih. Yes, Anna was definitely a Messiah.Messiah of Indian people. The mood of Indians can be best described by a sher(urdu poetry) which Iqbal said for Sir Syed Ahmad Khan (Founder Aligarh Muslim University) “Hazaron saal nargis apni benoori pe roti hai, Bohot mushkil se hota hai chaman me didawar peda.” He took the courage to stand against Corruption and demanded a Bill. Initially we saw his movement appealed to the masses and people came out in large numbers to support his case. Anna’s intentions were good and selfless but only for time being. Soon he entered into duel with ruling party, and thanks to him for this (because that’s how we saw Anna’s real face and parties behind him). Mazhar Sadiq (Chemical 2nd year )

 




POLITICS CONTINUES Well , as ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY’s ( AMU ) Vice Chancellor, Prof. PK Abdul Aziz , prepares for his exit from office on the end of his term on 17th January, 2011; hunt for the next VC has already started, with enough speculations already made in media and local press . Panel of 20 nominees has already been forwarded to University’s Court , whose meeting was supposed to be held on 13th December , was postponed due to Visitor’s ( President ) intervention, ahead of charges of corruption on VC . Forwarded 20 nominees include CIC head ( IAS ) , VC of Jivaji University , VC of Manywar Shri Kanshiram Urdu Arabi Farsi University ( Lucknow ) and some other IAS and academicians . A big question arises; who should be ideally the next VC of AMU ? Some say, an academician will rule well, so some argue that an IAS would do the same job well ! Let me tell you , Who the hell thinks VC should rule in an university ? Is AMU a country in which anarchy is valid, that whosoever takes the charge of VC will become its ruler ? NOT AT ALL . Let me tell everyone , that VC’s job is to administer the system , to make sure that day to day work is on a smooth track , but not to RULE ! But in the past, some have mistaken this truth and they have literally ruled the varsity. They have used this post to fulfill their own needs, which is not acceptable anymore. Take the example, already Prof Aziz is facing serious financial irregularities and three different enquiries led by CBI, CAG and Fact Finding Commission are going on against him . This in turn has created various Lobbies in AMU, one anti VC and the other ProVC . Now, I am confused, is this an academic institute or a political arena where everyone is having their share in controversies? It’s a shame in name of academics. So, the politics continues. AMU teachers association (AMUTA) which tries to prove that they are well wishers of AMU by holding protests in campus against VC, thus encouraging other anti social groups from outside to hamper the discipline of AMU, is not doing any good for the varsity. I supposed that teachers were supposed to teach rather than sitting on Dharna , but I was completely wrong; especially in case of AMU. There are various other methods to protest, but sitting on Dharna, and holding long rallies in protest is not a good sign for any institution. Because in each case, its we the students who have to suffer and the politics continues. Tabish Ahmad (Chemical 2nd year )

WHERE ARE WE GOING?? OPEN YOUR EYES,BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!! Friends, as we all know our end semester exams have been postponed for the 5th time and precisely delayed by 60days where the total semester duration is of approximately 150 days...isn't it an alarm for every student who had come to this engineering college to become an engineer... With the ongoing trend of postponing exams its still uncertain that our exams will commence from the SO CALLED decided date, i.e. 15th feb...and if for this time they again get postponed there is no other option except for taking both the End Sems together...which means the teachers will have to check 2 sets of answer copies at the same time and will have to sacrifice their summer vacation to some extent, for which they may not agree...and now on the students part, they'll have to prepare for, on an average "12" subjects...which obviously is not comfortable for majority of them...so the probability suggests that there is just 1 more alternative...to again ask for the postponement of exams...now the question is who benefits from these postponements??? 4th years?? Even after getting placements and good ranks in GATE and CAT exams, they wont have their B.Tech. degrees...so how will they join the companies or colleges??? 3rd year and 2nd year ?? This is the most favourable time for SUMMER INTERNSHIPS where they can gain a lot of experience and may even get a Pre-Placement Offer(PPO)...it is highly uncertain about summer vacations so they will lose their bright chance of internships at some renowned place So how far can we go with this scenario full of uncertainities and delays?? Leaving behind whatsoever has already happened, lets unite ZHCETIANS for the sake of our future and parents' expectations... Let us all meet the DEAN and request him to make FIXED SCHEDULE for this whole session right now and anyone having problems with the dates or the schedule can come up with his/her problem to the Dean so that everything can be sorted out in the beginning only...and this fixed schedule should be signed by both DEAN and THE STUDENTS' UNION because once the exams are postponed, it ruins some other students' plans, that again leads to another postponement and the sequence goes on and on...unendingly... When every other reputed institutions have their fixed Academic Schedule , why can't we?? "SO ARE YOU READY TO DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN FOR YOURSELF????"   A ZHCET STUDENT
