Hyderabad: Telangana Deputy Chief Minister Kadiyam Srihari on Friday assured reconsidering the affiliation of 175 engineering colleges, whose affiliation with JNTU-H was recently revoked. The delegation led by the Federation of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh Minority Educational Institutions General Secretary Zafar Javeed met the Deputy Chief Ministers’, Kadiyam and Mahmood Ali, at the Secretariat on Friday.
Kadiyam assured that the disaffiliated colleges would be examined and appropriately reconsidered if the prerequisites for re-affiliation with the university were met. The delegation requested reconsideration of stipulated norms, infrastructure and faculty on the basis of candidates actually admitted to the preceding academic years instead of sanctioned intake by the All India Council for Teacher Education (AICTE) for granting affiliation in the academic year 2015-16.
According to Zafar Javeed, “This to an extent is also as stipulated by AICTE in their Hand Book”. A grace period of four months was also requested to allow the disaffiliated colleges in meeting the specified standards of infrastructure and faculty stipulated by the AICTE and the affiliating university in toto, before conducting the final inspection for granting affiliation for the academic year 2015-16.
He also reminded the Ministers that the “tuition fee” for the preceding two academic years was not disbursed, “consequently placing all the Engineering and other professional colleges in great financial difficulty”, especially in continuing and upgrading to the aforementioned norms.
The request seeks the government to consider the norms stipulated in terms of infrastructure and faculty on the basis of candidates actually admitted to the preceding academic years in all courses in the existing second, third and fourth years, instead of calculating them on the basis of the sanctioned intake. Earlier, the delegation also met Telangana Deputy CM Mohammed Mahmood Ali representing the affiliation issue.
