The UGC had asked the University to submit the 12th Five Year Plan proposal after getting it duly approved by all the statutory bodies of the University.

 

Since the actual allocation of resources for the 12th Five Year Plan is yet to be finalised by the Government of India, the Universities have been requested to develop two parallel scenarios priority-wise, one with a hike of three times and another with a hike of five times of the 11th Five Year Plan allocation to University under both development of merged schemes.

 

Accordingly a committee was formed under the chairmanship of the Vice-Chancellor to draft the 12th plan proposals and a document titled “ Inclusive and Qualitative Expansion of Higher Education” is prepared.

 

The proposals are presented in two scenarios and are further classified under Capital Head, General Head and Salary Head.

 

Under scenario I the University has proposed Rs 40.5 crores as the required fund.

 

In scenario II Rs 65.80 crores has been proposed as the required fund.

 

Committee for PG course

Chikkamagaluru, Feb 21: Alleged Bharatiya Janata Party supporters threw stones at Amulya Leona’s father’s house at Gullagadde near Koppa on Thursday night, after she was charged for making objectionable remarks at a public programme in Bengaluru.

Amulya Leona’s father Wazi said that the incident, which left window panes and doors damaged, took place at around 7.30 p.m. “They are all BJP supporters. They were in a group. I have complained to the police with the names of a few who led the group,” he said.

Three policemen have been deployed at his house since Thursday night.

Amulya Leona, a B.A. student, was charged with sedition after she raised pro-Pakistan slogans at a protest against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act in Bengaluru.

Mr. Wazi, who owns a two-acre areca plantation and runs a poultry farm, said he condemned the statement made by his daughter and he would not make any attempts to get her bail. “Let the law take its course. I cannot approve of her statement,” he said.

He said he had cautioned his daughter against getting involved in protests. “I told her to complete studies first and later she could fight for poor people. But what she said yesterday is not acceptable. I don’t know what made her so. I hope a probe would bring out who prompted her to make such statements,” he said.

Mr. Wazi said he has been politically active for several years, and had earlier worked for former education minister H.G. Govinde Gowda. He then shifted to the BJP and worked in support of D.N. Jeevaraj, who represented Sringeri constituency last time, and current Udupi-Chickmagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje. “I have worked for the BJP in the past. As Govinde Gowda’s son contested on JD(S) ticket for Sringeri seat, I supported him”, he said.

Meanwhile, a video clip that went viral on Thursday night showed a group of Bajrang Dal activists compelling Mr. Wazi to shout ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’. “I have no hesitation in raising ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ slogans,” said Mr. Wazi, adding that his statement was taken forcibly. “I am a patriot. Many writers, activists and politicians have come to my place over the years,” he said.
