UGC to set up national ragging helpline by June 15

New Delhi: The University Grants Commission (UGC) on Wednesday issued guidelines for a national call centre to be set up to enable ragging victims from across the country to register their complaints by dialling a toll free number.

"The Education Consultancy India Ltd (ECIL) has been entrusted with the job of setting up of the national call centre. By June 15, it will be operational," UGC Chairman Sukhadeo Thorat told sources on Wednesday.

The helpline will be equipped with software that will pass on the complaints directly to the head of the institution within 15 minutes to help the administration protect the victims.

Thorat said the helpline will operate around the clock and the UGC will monitor its functioning.

Under the anti-ragging laws, student offenders can be fined up to Rs.250,000 or rusticated for one to four semesters if found guilty of ragging.

The offence will be treated as a severe criminal act, he added.

The new provisions laid down by the UGC also requires that the parents and students give a written undertaking, at the time of admission, that they are aware of the ragging guidelines and will report any such incident.

HSBC Bank to offer scholarship programme for top UK universities

Mumbai: Every student dreams of studying abroad in a world-renowned university but their dreams are not fulfilled due to the large amount of money involved. This would no longer be a cherished dream as the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) Ltd India has announced the HSBC Scholarship Programme.

The scholarship programme will be introduced to help students in getting easier access to studying in the United Kingdom (UK).

"The programme will select two students and will provide them £25,000 (Rs.20 lakh) per year to pursue any graduate and post graduate programme at Oxford University, Cambridge University or University of London," said Malini Thadani, head group communications and corporate sustainability at HSBC.

In its eighth year, the aim of the programme is to build a community of leaders that will attain global knowledge and at the same time contribute to the society.

"We are in a lookout for students with a potential and the vision of improving the lives of people not only in India but around the world. The passouts from this scholarship programme are expected to use their education for the benefit of others," added Thadani.

"The criteria for choosing the students for conferring the scholarship will be based on their previous academic record and future potential, leadership qualities apart from writing a 500 word statement-of-purpose that explains future goals and how studying in UK will help him/ her achieve that goal," she said.

Students will also need to nominate two referees who will comment on their character and non-academic achievements.

"Our job does not end by merely offering scholarship to the student. The student will be submitting progress reports which will include academic and extracurricular achievements. These have to be certified by the relevant heads of department of the student's university," said Thadani.

The Progress reports will be monitored by HSBC officials to ensure the continuation of the scholarship for the full three-year term.

DETAILS
- Candidates must be below 25 years of age.
- Scholarship will cover fees, living expenses and airfare from India to London for three years
- Students can apply on or before May 26 to avail the scholarship.

CBSE helpline flooded with calls from anxious students

New Delhi: A day before the class 12 results are declared, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) helplines on Thursday were flooded with phone calls from anxious students and parents.

As many as 37 principals, trained counsellors from CBSE affiliated government and private schools, psychologists and social scientists are operating these telephone helplines, interactive voice response system (IVRS) and online counseling individually from Wednesday.

These helplines will be functional till June 3.

"The response from students has been tremendous. I have lost count of the number of calls I have got since morning. Students are asking several questions as some of them are not satisfied with their performance and are scared of what might happen," Geetanjali Kumar, a professional career counsellor, told sources.

According to counsellors, the parents of students are more anxious than their children and are burdening them with the weight of their expectations.

"I have seen a lot of panic among students as well as parents. In fact, parents are more anxious than their children are and I requested all of them that they should try to differentiate between dreams and reality. They must apply logic and keep their expectations real," she added.

P.C. Bose, former deputy director (Education) and CBSE counsellor, says, "I have been getting calls from students who have scored very less marks in their pre-board exams. They are not only worried about their scores but also about the career, they should take up in future."

"My advice in general to all the students is that they should pursue graduation in whatever subject that comes natural to them," he added.

There are in all 18 helpline centres in India and three abroad - Dubai, Doha and Kuwait. Students can also log onto CBSE website www.cbse.nic.in to get information and techniques to cope with post-result anxiety.

This year, 637,578 students - 264,248 female candidates and 373,330 male candidates - took the class XII board exams in the country and abroad.

Many students are also seeking career guidance from the CBSE counsellors about what courses and subjects they should opt at university level, engineering and medical coaching facilities and taking competitive exams.

"The students are also interested in knowing about Delhi University cut offs and how to apply to other universities. Many students want to know about coaching facilities in the city for various competitive exams and reference material," said Anita Sharma, Principal of Sanatan Dharma Public School.

NGO Snehi has also started a helpline to deal with stressed students.

"It is a hope-line rather than a helpline. The students are nervous with just a day left for the results. They are anxious about what if they fail to meet their expectations," said Leela Dhawan, the coordinator of the helpline.

DU may allot more seats to B.Com Hons.

New Delhi: Delhi University (DU) might increase the number of seats available in B. Com Honours (Hons)

The varsity may likely shift the B.Com programme, initially known as B.Com (pass) to the School of Open Learning (SOL) and add the seats to it.

"The final decision has to be taken yet and the proposal will be submitted before the Academic Council soon which will take a decision," Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Deepak Pental said.

The B.Com programme was introduced four years back as a modified version of the B.Com (Pass) course by the university.

"The seats of the B.Com programme will be amended in B.Com (Hons) course and will help in more students pursuing the course, as it is the most sought after course in the DU," he added.

The course can be availed if a student scores over 85pc marks.

"Many students could not pursue this course even after scoring high marks due to limited seats. Now this won't act as a hindrance in pursuing the course," he said.

"In case a student does not have a Commerce background then the student won't be eligible to pursue the course as Accountancy is not applicable without Maths," said VC.

However, the teachers' union is opposing this criteria as they feel that this is not in best interest of the students.

ICWAI signs MoU with Institute of Management Accountants, USA

New Delhi: The Institute of Cost and Works Accountants of India (ICWAI) entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Institute of Management Accountants (IMA), USA.

The MoU has been signed to enable mutual recognition and cooperation between the two institutes to develop the profession of Management Accountancy for the benefit of their members and students in the pursuit of excellence in education and training and continuing professional development in Management Accountancy.

It will also enable recognition of the professional qualification of the respective Institutes. A member of ICWAI can get enrolled as a member of IMA USA and vice versa.

However, an IMA member enrolling as a member of ICWAI will not be allowed to hold a certificate of practice to undertake any statutory work in India.

"The MoU will bring mutual recognition and global cooperation between members of ICWAI and IMA. IMA and ICWAI have a long history of working together on research and conferences and this agreement is the next step of a productive relationship," said an official from ICWAI.

Mr. Kunal Banerjee, President ICWAI, said, "ICWAI will enhance its global presence through this MoU and members of both the Institutes will immensely benefit from recognition of both certifications. The MoU will also help in applied research in areas of specific interest related to Management Accounting".

The ICWAI has been established under an Act of the Parliament to regulate the profession of Cost and Management Accountancy in India. Over the years the Cost and Management Accountancy profession has registered a formidable growth and has come to occupy a prominent role in Indian economy and society. Today the Institute has more than 1,65,000 students and more than 42,000 qualified members spread all across the world.
