New Delhi: The
Supreme Court Monday gave six weeks time to an expert panel to
study the replies of 44 deemed universities facing de-recognition
due to deficiencies in their institutions.
The three-member panel is likely to be reconstituted soon as one
of its member withdrew from it.
The apex court bench of Justice Dalveer Bhandari and Justice
Deepak Verma gave the committee six weeks to go into the responses
by 44 deemed universities facing de-recognition on the
recommendation of Professor P.N. Tandon Committee.
The court said that an unwilling member of the panel could not be
compelled to be on the committee and directed its reconstitution.
The judges said that the human resource development ministry would
go through the findings of the expert committee and make
recommendation on the future of these institutions. The ministry
will get four weeks to act on the panel's report.
The expert committee will go through the responses that these 44
deemed universities have individually given to the notices issued
to them by the ministry.
On Jan 11, the apex court directed the central government to issue
individual notice to each of the 44 deemed universities drawing
attention to the deficiencies in their institutions and calling
for explanations.
