1. NALSAR advertised for 55 academic positions and gave around 15 days time to apply as per the news paper advertisement.
2. Insufficient time given to the applicants - also suddenly they came up with a requirement of a written test and without conspicuously putting up the same in leading national dailies. They announced on 3rd May that the written test shall be held on the 13th of this month at NALSAR campus. How can candidates reach Hyderabad from all over the country within such a short time? Absolutely whimsical.
3. Clearly, the admin wants to filter away the potentially good applicants in order to accommodate their own candidates.
The HC on Thursday did not agree to stay the written test scheduled on Saturday but directed the Registrar at NALSAR and the Law Secretary to submit their respective response in the next hearing. The case is to resume in June.
This VC did a similar thing at NLUd where he appointed several teachers without requirement, hence NLUD faces an additional burden of 3 crore annually. Newly appointed teachers do not have any reasonable workload. Appointments were done in haste even when he knew that he is about to leave.
This current VC at NALSAR ▮▮▮ spoiled the future of NLU Delhi and now is wholeheartedly doing the same for NALSAR.
During his sloppy tenure 4 very competent faculty were troubled and finally left and in due course of time joined NLS Bangalore. Resultantly, NLUD suffered while this guy fled from there and joined NALSAR. NLUD's gradation has fallen to just an A from the earlier A++ and the score has fallen from 3.6 to 3.1. What a shame!!
Just one remark - this guy and the likes are very bad for the institutions. The NLUd can do better without these Jokers.
Dont forget the earlier round of recruitments and regularisation of selected faculty under the champion of justice education and founder of FM's LAW. The same can be retrieved from the university under the RTI
1. Faculty without due qualification (degree as well as publication wise) were recruited with absolute dereliction of the UGC norms.
2. Faculty were given a free ride from probation to permanence even without fulfilling the clearly stated terms in the offer letter regarding publications.
3. Blatant acceptance of falsified information regarding publications were accepted without any cross check by the university to give undue benefits to a few select faculty members.
Nothing new has happened under the regime of the current VC that was not done by the earlier. At least the current VC advertised positions and has shown an intent to bring faculty rather than let many many leave.
There's another anonymous email that has gone viral, which accuses ▮▮▮ payment as a ▮▮▮ as being shady and irregular under norms. The email says that ▮▮▮ is being paid over 3.5 lakh per month in that position, which is higher than anything paid to any academic in similar position in any Indian institute. In addition, ▮▮▮ charges extra for actually offering credit courses. The NALSAR regulations do not allow any of that.
It is shocking that the esteemed Prof.Upendra Baxi does not get a single penny as professor emeritus at Delhi University. Yet, at NALSAR 3.5 Lakhs per month is paid to his student who appointed as Professor Emerita. She charges separately for teaching courses ▮▮▮. In two and half years more than 1.20 crores has been paid to the said professor by NALSAR and this is a life long appointment.
▮▮▮ Why are questions never asked about this? ▮▮▮. ▮▮▮ The onus is on us to determine if this is the ideal manner to utilise these funds. We mustconvince the University to use these funds for student scholarshipsand pay humane wagesto our workers who actually contribute to the functioning of the University. At the very least, we must have public consultationsto justify this enormous expenditure.
1. (a) Executive council may, after the retirement confer the title of “Professor Emeritus” on a professor of the University who has retired. From this University after total service of at least fifteen years, including, at least seven years’ service as professor in the University.
(b) The Vice-Chancellor may recommend to the Academic Council, the conferment of the title of Professor Emeritus and on the recommendation of the Academic Council, the Executive council may confer the title.
1. Title of Professor Emeritus will be conferred only on scholars who have made outstanding contributions to their subject by their published research work and teaching. 2. A Professor Emeritus may pursue academic work within the framework of the department to which he is attached. He will not be provided with any special facilities like a personal office, or an independent laboratory nor will he be a member of any committee of the department or of the University. 3. Emeritus Professorship will carry with it no financial commitment for the University or responsibility for providing residential accommodation.
This is a good reminder of why one must never put NALSAR above NLS in one's preference list. Glad to have avoided that blunder. Absolutely Shameful. Proves that NLS remains leagues above.
agreed, this year the faculty recruitments have been absolutely diabolical. one of my juniors told me that their (new) ▮▮▮ (!) prof said "being gay is a choice"
This is how comments in class get distorted. The concerned teacher had said that coming out as gay is a matter of choice, not being gay. Your junior should start paying more attention and improve their understanding before boiling in righteous indignation.
Shameless. One would expect better from a so called tier one University which considers itself to be on par with NLUD and NLS but alas such open display of inefficiency brings into question the University's legitimacy.
Why? Both NLSIU and NLUD have had similar writs filed questioning their recruitment in the past. In fact, several decisions taken by Sudhir have been borderline irregular enough to be challenged before a court of law. Some have been, like NLAT.
Sounds about right. That's what NLUD grads' self-esteem congratulatory rants usually feel like. Nobody in the industry actually deems them better though.
Nothing the students can do about NIRF, nobody here endorses it anyway. But you can keep doing the “you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours” with NUJS. NLUD couldn’t care less. We know we’re better than both of you on many fronts.
No wannabeism involved in it, it’s been proven and your acceptance of it is irrelevant. If anything, it’s wannabe for NALSAR to keep pretending that it’s only competition is NLS when the reality is clearly otherwise. It’s a fact that NALSAR’s reputation today is just based on legacy achievements and the college stagnated under FM. It’s rank is rightfully number 3 and the only reason it’s not worse is because NUJS and NLIU were governed even more poorly. But, hey, atleast NALSAR has some Business School now.
You can keep raising questions on the morality of NIRF and AILET to deflect the nature of the argument but that's just a waste of time. Students have no control over either.
On which front is NALSAR definitively better now? Has it won more international moots/debates/ADR than NLUD? That's a no. Has it produced more toppers in graduate exams like UPSC/CAT/GMAT? No, in the number of top 100 rankers, it's behind NLUD in UPSC by a large margin. Are there some jobs or scholarships that are accessible/won only by NALSAR students over NLUD? No, graduate outcomes are largely similar across the board considering NALSAR has a larger batch size. Is the faculty at NALSAR much superior? Definitely not. These are not merely claims, they are easily cross-verifiable by information on the web.
So, again, I think it's sadly petty for NALSAR folks to keep pretending they're superior when their few advantages are largely owing to their earlier establishment date (which hasn't been as well leveraged in the way NLS has done so) like older scholarship holders or few more jobs due to alumni reputation in the industry. Come back when you actually have some irrefutable evidence for your self-proclaimed superiority. Until then, you're simply deluding yourself.
Actually, NLUD trolls like you are claiming the superiority, so you should be the ones providing that evidence. There is no use saying that your institutional immorality is beyond student control, since students have never once even protested against those, choosing instead to enjoy the benefits and therefore being complicit to it.
What do you expect the students to do? Boycott AILET and avoid joining one of the few decent Indian law schools and then hold some massive protest about NIRF? No one has the time or energy and honestly, even without NIRF, I think NLUD’s reputation is cemented so that’s not hugely beneficial anymore although it helps to put the arrogance of older NLU grads in place.
The only arrogance that I see here are from NLUD trolls. And if you wish to learn about how students in other NLUs protest against admin decisions, read LI archives.
As usual, a useless answer. NLUD has had multiple campus protests in the past and they’ve been more impactful than at many other NLUs. But protesting against the admin for AILET and NIRF is simply not on anyone’s agenda for obvious reasons nor should it be.
Weren't NALSAR folks feeling very proud that they got SKDR to join them from NLUD not so long ago? Bajpai seems a much better option from the looks of things.
Delhi High Court dismissed it. And Bajpai was questioned since he's not holding a law degree, that wasn't a scam since that was not a qualification requirement for his position. His daughter was just a research associate after completing her LLM at NLUD. But the vein of argumentation here is quite lovely - "We have scams here at NALSAR, but since you guys also had scams, that negates our scams and you have no authority to comment on them".
I'm not at all from NALSAR, so there goes your assumptions. As far as scams go, then let the high court comment on this one instead of you denigrating others based on allegations. Everyone at NLUD and many outsiders know what bajpai did.
Its so wierd, the contention is placed before the very court whose very chief justice is the chancellor and has signed on various reports and commitee minutes (also being present) for these decisions.
Indian Judiciary 101: Conflict of Interest is ok if it is with the judge. Because muh judicial independence and muh who are you to interfere. Mi lords are above accountability.
2. Insufficient time given to the applicants - also suddenly they came up with a requirement of a written test and without conspicuously putting up the same in leading national dailies.
