[WhatsUpUoH] On UGC Non-Net

Dear All,


Please find bellow a collective statement on the decision by the UGC to do away with the non-NET fellowship scheme. The intention is to organize a signature campaign and mass share with all. You can mail it to your friends and like-minded people, press, Govt. officials and so on. Please copy, paste, share, forward to as many as possible.


Thank all in anticipation.


"As students carrying out our research work in various disciplines, we strongly oppose the decision taken by the University Grants Commission (UGC) on the 7th of October, 2015 to discontinue the non-NET fellowship scheme, which is operational in different central and few state universities across the country. We believe that this regressive decision will not only put the future of many aspiring researchers at stake but will also do great harm to the overall research atmosphere of the country. The non-NET fellowship scheme made it possible for a considerable number of researchers across disciplines to remain committed to the spirit of scholarship as they tried to survive a crucial period of transition in their career by struggling to clear the National Eligibility Test or avail some other source of financial support. Therefore, discontinuing this fellowship scheme will only adversely affect the quality of research and make it inaccessible to an important section of young and aspiring researchers who, despite great financial hurdles, decided to go on pursuing serious research work in their respective disciplines. Act of this kind on the part of UGC is at once insulting and discouraging to the scholars who are sincerely engaged in their research work, and concerned about both the present and future of scholarship in India.


This is no secret that researchers in India pursue their work within miserable infrastructural conditions and despite these, produce important specimens of scholarship. In such a situation, one expects that the UGC will work to create better research atmosphere in the country. The decision by the UGC to do away with the non-NET fellowship scheme has come as a rebuttal to our hopes and expectations. We, like our friends opposing this decision in front of the UGC, are afraid that this is yet another step to damage the spirit of public education in our country. Hence, we stand in solidarity with all those opposing this regressive decision which, we believe, will only be greatly harmful to the state of current research in India".


Researchers of India lets unite and demand UGC and MHRD take back this horrible decision and expand this scheme to various state universities with a hike in the fellowship amount.

Re: [WhatsUpUoH] An open letter to the University Engineer

Similar is my concern. I am staying in north ladies hostel currently and it a very common sight to find over flowing tanks. Despite mentioning the cleaning staff too continue to waste a lot of water while cleaning the washrooms.Also, since most flushes in the washrooms do not work there is a tendency to leave the taps open leading to further wastage.

I request you to take action immediately.
And to pass a circular regarding ways to prevent wastage of water.

I asked the security guard at the Humanities about the issue. He told me that it is a regular scenario at the Humanities building. He told me that the people in charge of the water will keep the water flow on and go away. They  will come back several hours later, after a huge amount of water getting wasted. Since I requested the security guard tried to go on the terrace to close the water. But he could not do that since the door to the terrace is closed.

Water is also getting wasted the University in some other way as well. There are a lot of taps in the hostel that are leaking. Water is getting wasted drop by drop. If you think every drop of water counts, it is an important issue as well (though this is not that visible as in the case of overflowing water tanks). I learned from some of my friends that it is the case in many other hostels as well. When people outside the University are struggling for water, we , the University community, wasting the water due to such cases of negligences might be an extremely irresponsible act.

I got one such leaking tap repaired in my hostel las month. I had to run behind the plumbers to get it done. Before trying to solve the problem, the plumber tried to rather dissolve the problem. He tried to dissolve the problem by saying that 'you simply have to close the tap tight'. I had to provide a few arguments which are followed by a demonstration of the problems in the tap to convince him that his solution tot he problem will not work and hence it actually is a problem and needs to be solved.

It will be great if the hostel authorities themselves check for such issues on a regular interval  and take necessary actions (rather than the students writing a formal compliant and then going behind the plumbers to get the job done).

Dear Mr University Engineer,

Have you heard of float valves? They cost Rs 100-200 and are available at most hardware stores. It takes a plumber less than 10 minutes to install one. They are used to prevent overflow in water tanks.

Now why do I ask? Because of this phenomena that I have been observing over the last one month-





This is a daily scene from K hostel. Water overflows from tanks like this for 2-4 hours. Now how much water is that?

1 litre per three seconds. (yes, we measured. Thrice, and took an average, rounded to the nearest half-second).

Which is 20 litres per minute. 1200 litres per hour. Which is 4800 litres per day (assuming that this happens only for 4 hours a day, sometimes it is more).

One month, and numerous complaints later, water continues to flow. In fact, it continues to flow not just here, but in I hostel (has been quotidian since at least a year now), and several other places on campus. (no, we did not write a letter, but does the university administration need us to get a letter signed by 500 people, submit it in quadruplicate with a Rs 20 SBI challan, and sit on a hunger strike before people get up from their bureaucratic bottoms and fix float valves?)

Do you realise that this continues to happen when drought has been declared in five states already in our country? 40% of districts in India has received deficient rainfall this year. Our own Telangana has received 20% decreased rainfall. Crops are failing, farmers are committing suicide, and our university prefers to waste thousands of litres of water every day.

Please, get a few float valves and fix these tanks. Let us stop wasting so much water apathetically.

And while you are at it, please note than phenomena such as these-



caused by approaches such as these-




tend to beat the entire point of water purification, and leaves students in these hostels wondering about that weird algal taste in the water they drink. What are you waiting for? An outbreak of Legionnaires disease?
(this photo is from the K hostel water purifier on the roof. Three months and numerous complaints later.)

Yours sincerely,

A disgruntled student.
