Graduation Day held at their college premises on 5th May 2014. The
funtion was presided by Sairam College institutions chairman Mr.Leo Muthu, CEO
Mr.Sai Prakash, Secretary M.Vasu, College Advisor Mr.Seetharaman, Principal
C.V.Jayakumar and the Chief Guest for the occasion was S.S. MANTHA, Chairman,
All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE).
Speaking on the sidelines of the 15th
graduation day ceremony at Sri Sairam Engineering College here on Saturday,The
All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) chairman Professor S.S.Mantha
has called the University Grants Commission’s (UGC) one-year moratorium to
engineering colleges a wrong move. There had been no demographic study done
prior to imposing the moratorium on technical institutions.
“For instance, we need data on how many
students appeared for and passed in the class X and XII examinations, the
courses they join, whether they migrate to other districts, how many drop out,
etc. Based on a demographic profile, a perspective plan can help identify
pockets where a women’s college is required, for instance,” he said, adding
that the industry needs in the districts must also be analysed.
Prof Mantha said there were several arts and
science colleges in the country that functioned from two small rooms, but the
UGC had not initiated any action against them. Coming down heavily on the
developmental councils in technical universities, the AICTE chief questioned
their functioning in not coming up with the perspective plan.
“No state has come up with a perspective plan
proving the moratorium right. Decisions should be made on sound principles,
AICTE has written to state governments, asking them to send their perspective
plan, showing the number of colleges, students, facilities and districts which
need colleges, but only Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra have done so, and these
too are sketchy,” the AICTE chief said.
When private institutions are willing to put in
infrastructure and comply by the regulator’s norms, how can you stop them from
being set up, said S.S. Mantha, Chairman, (AICTE), on the recent one-year
moratorium by University Grants Commission on setting up new engineering
colleges. Based on the number of students who will enter higher education
institutions, he said, expansion was required.
On processing of applications for new
colleges, he said, “We have filed an application in the court seeking a
two-month extension because we need at least that much time to complete the
process. He said the admission process would not be delayed if they were given
the extension soon.
Showering praise on Sairam Engineering College
and its chairman Leo Muthu, Prof Mantha urged that the college start
multi-disciplinary programmes to accommodate over 10,000 students.
In his presidential address, Mr Muthu pointed
out that their college had alumni who worked in MNCs across the world.
“Companies that recruit our students praise the college for the
discipline and values we have given them. This makes us feel proud as we have
created responsible citizens,” he said.
Hailing AICTE for its regulatory role, Mr
Muthu said that post-1993 the council had made big strides, especially during
Prof Mantha’s tenure.
College chief executive officer (CEO) J. Sai
Prakash, felicitating the students recalled how the college had trained
students in several spheres, including personality development and
communication skills.
After the speach The All India Council for
Technical Education (AICTE) chairman Professor S.S.Mantha launched Sri Sai Ram
Engg College Website for the benefit of the Students.
