Delhi University has prepared its third cut-off for admission in undergraduate courses of different colleges. However, students or admission seekers will have to wait for next few hours (or Thursday morning) to see the cut-off officially.

Though students will miss some of the prestigious colleges or (so-called) hot courses at their choice of colleges in the third cut-off but students with lesser marks will have an opportunity to choose their choice of courses. If go by the university authority the students will miss SRCC in the third list. Apart from it, several courses like B.Com (Hons), BA (Eco), BA (Psychology), BA (Eng), BA (Sociology), B.Sc. (Physics), B.Sc. (Chemistry) and some other subjects may not be there in some of the well known colleges like Hansraj, Hindu, LSR, Venkateshwara, Daulat Ram, Miranda House and some other colleges.

However, seats in several subjects like BA (Hindi), BA (Sanskrit), BA(Philosophy), BA (History), BA (Pol. Sc.), B.Sc. (Botany), B.Sc. (Zoology) will be available in various colleges with a drop in the cut-off.

It is a nuclear fission like situation in Delhi University. Though Cobalt-60 is not capable for nuclear fission (fusion bomb can be made out of it theoretically) but the recent episode of Cobalt-60 and the unilateral imposition of semester system in some subjects by Vice Chancellor have created fission like reaction.

Fumed over Sunday’s episode of physical assault on teachers at South Campus a large number of teachers in the university have stopped evaluation work in protest of the incident. Teachers have not participated in the evaluation work at atleast four centres today. These include centres at Kirori Mal College, Miranda House, Hansraj College and Khalsa College, said an official of Delhi University. According to him three to four hundred teachers have been associated with all these centres.

However, Delhi University Teachers’ Association (DUTA) office-bearers say that this is a kind of temporary suspension of the evaluation work. We have appealed them to join evaluation work as students must not suffer in the whole episode.

AC Members dharna enters into 5th Day:

Some of the members have started facing health related problems due to the prolonged dharna. “Some of our members have already facing various ailments the dharna has increased their problems”, R S Dahia, an AC member told fachcha.com over phone. According to him Vice Chancellor has still not come to talk with us though he had promised to do so. “We received a message from V C’s office on Sunday at about 12.30 pm that V C was coming to talk with us but nothing has happened till now”, he said.

VC’s letter for talk
Meanwhile the V C Deepak Pental has sent a letter to agitating teachers to talk on the issue on Tuesday but putting a pre-condition that the discussion can take place only if agitation is stopped. Teachers have yet to take decision on the issue.

Guess, where did Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit get brilliant ideas? During her office of the Chief Minister for over 11 years or in the her alma meter’s cafeteria?

Believe or not but the Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit believes that it was Miranda House’s cafeteria where she used to get brilliant ideas during sip of coffee and chatting with friends. It is another matter that her tenure in the college was much less than that of the Chief Minister’s office. The frank admission came during her nostalgic visit during the founder day of her college, Miranda House at Delhi University. Addressing and interacting with students of the Miranda House the Chief Minister shared her delicate memories of colleges with students during late sixties that how she used to enjoy ice-cream, spicy shakarkand (sweet potato) and so on.

Girl of the Miranda House too enjoyed the moment and kept on whistling a lot during the Chief Minister’s address to show their support and joy to the Chief Minister. She said that at first she is a Mirandian, Chief Minister later on.
The Chief Minister also used the moment to put some demand in favour of woman by saying that time has come to respect the work of women by quantifying the out put in terms of monetary gain.

Stressing upon the fact that more than 75% of work was done by women but it goes unrecognized and unacknowledged because of the fact that most of it is in the unorganized category. Giving detail about the role of a woman in the family, the society and their contribution to productive activities she said that these should be recognized and respected among the society.
