Gangadhar Meher University dispenses with gown and cap for convocation

TNN | Jan 3, 2019, 09.08 AM IST

SAMBALPUR: The graduating students of the Gangadhar Meher University (GMU) will not wear gowns and caps during the first convocation of the institution, to be held on Saturday.
The authorities of the institution have decided that while male students will attend the convocation wearing white pants, white shirt and Sambalpuri plaid, female students will wear cream saree and the plaid. The plaids will be provided by the institution; the students will have to return them after the programme.

Addressing the media here on Wednesday, vice-chancellor Atanu Pati said the gowns and caps were not suitable for the climate of Odisha. “Hence, we decided to do away with the robes.”

Deputy registrar U C Pati said, “The other objective behind taking the decision is the promotion of Sambalpuri handloom. Wearing of the Sambalpuri plaids during the convocation will help encourage weavers.”

The decision of the authorities has evoked a mixed response from the students. “I welcome the decision to use Sambalpuri plaid during the convocation. This will give the audience a glimpse of the tradition of western Odisha,” said a graduating student, Ipsita Patnaik.

Another student, under the condition of anonymity, said, “Ever since I joined institution, I had dreamt of wearing a robe with a cap on the final day of university. The authorities’ decision ruined my plans.”

Governor Ganeshi Lal will preside over the convocation. Additional principal secretary to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Pramod Kumar Mishra, has been invited to deliver the first convocation address of the institution. As many as 103 university medals will be given to the students at the ceremony.

A first year MBBS student of Bharatpur Medical College on Thursday accused an assistant professor of sexually harassing her. The professor has denied the allegation.

In her complaint to the principal of the college, the 21-year-old student from Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh, said that assistant professor Dr Kishori Lal Meena called her to his faculty room over phone on January 2. He showed her some charts and when she asked for permission to leave, he molested her, the complaint said.

Dr Ajay Kukreja, principal of medical college, said a first year student of MBBS has filed a written complaint against an assistant professor accusing him of molesting her.

“There is a Gender Harassment Committee in the college, which has been asked to start investigation. The seven-member committee will complete probe within 24 hours and submit a report,” Kukreja said.

Additional district magistrate of city, Omprakash Charan, visited the college on instructions of district collector Dr Arushi Malik. He told the complainant student’s parents to register a complaint with the police.

Women students of the medical college staged a protest demanding legal action against the assistant professor.

Parents of the student also reached the college at Rampura on Jaipur-Agra National Highway under Sewar police station limits and demanded strict action against the professor.

The accused assistant professor, Dr Kishori Lal Meena, said all allegations by the student were false. He said the student was absent for internal exams and she sought his help with her attendance to pass exams. He said a peon was present in his office when the student came to meet him.

Meena lives within the campus with his wife Dr Kavita Yadav who is also assistant professor in the same college. Dr Yadav said the student sent a message on her husband’s mobile at 1.30 am on January 1 which showed her “wrong intention”.

Madras High Court enhances relief from Rs 50.85 lakh to Rs 69 lakh in mishap case

Humane nature of Justice Kirubakaran comes to fore.

Justice N. Kirubakaran of the Madras high court

Chennai: Justice N. Kirubakaran of the Madras high court, who is known for his humane approach, has once again proved the same. While dealing with an appeal from an insurance company for reducing the compensation awarded by a tribunal in a motor accident case, Justice N. Kirubakaran, heading a division bench, suo motu has enhanced the compensation from Rs 50.85 lakh to a whopping sum of Rs 69 lakh even in the absence of the claimants before the court.

One S. Magesh, an engineer working as senior lead designer in a private company died in an accident on October 9, 2010, when he was riding a two-wheeler from Poonamallee to Thiruvallur high road and was hit by a lorry, insured with M/s Reliance General Insurance Company Limited. On a petition from his wife, two minor children and his mother, the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Poonamallee awarded `50.85 as compensation. Aggrieved the insurance company filed the present appeal to reduce the compensation amount.

Dismissing the appeal at the “admission stage” itself, a division bench comprising Justices N. Kirubakaran and Krishnan Ramasamy, suo motu enhanced the compensation to `69 lakh and directed the tribunal to summon the claimants and verify their identity, by getting ID proof and inform about the enhancement of compensation, as they are not aware of the suo motu enhancement of compensation payable to them.

Writing the judgment for the Bench, Justice Kirubakaran said a perusal of the record shows that the deceased was a qualified B.E graduate and a representative of the employer deposed that the deceased was drawing `39,986 as monthly salary. Since the deceased was aged about 32 years, future prospects has to be added, which the Tribunal failed to add. As per the Constitution bench’s judgment of the Supreme Court 40 per cent has to be added towards future prospects. After adding 40 percent, the monthly income would be at `55,980 and the annual income would be at `6.71,760. After deducting income tax, the yearly income would be at `6,19,408. Since the size of the family was three, one third has to be deducted towards personal expenses of the deceased. After deducting the personal expenses, the loss of annual contribution would be `4,12,938. By applying multiplier method and loss of consortium and love and affection, the compensation was arrived at `69 lakh, the bench added.

Confirming the award of `1 lakh each to the two children namely Aswitha Makesh and Sam Makesh, by the tribunal, the bench said the two children were 2 years and 4 months old respectively, at the time of the accident and they lost their father’s love and affection, guidance and care through out their life. “It is very unfortunate that the third minor respondent (Sam Makesh) would not have even recognized his father. In this case, the minors lost their father at the very young age itself. It is very difficult to groom a child by both the parents nowadays, and hence it would be very difficult for the first respondent (Sudha alias Sudha Makesh) to bring up the children and it is also impossible for the children to grow as normal children, in the absence of their father’s care and guidance. Hence, this court is justified in confirming award of `1 lakh towards loss of love and affection to each of the two children”, the bench added.

The bench directed the Tribunal to file a report about the information given to the claimants by summoning them along with proof with the acknowledgement of the claimants about enhancement.

The bench said out of the award amount, Sudha, wife of the deceased was entitled to `25 lakh, the two minor children were entitled to `18 lakh each and mother of the deceased was entitled to `8 lakh. “As far as minor claimants are concerned, their share shall be deposited in interest bearing fixed deposit in any one of the nationalised banks, till they attain majority. The mother of the two children is permitted to withdraw interest accruing on such deposit once in three months”, the bench added and posted the matter in the fourth week of March for reporting compliance.

Madras HC

Chennai: “Now, the right to health has become a fundamental right. The obligation is cast on the State to protect the citizens from health hazards and to provide state of the art free medical facilities”, said the Madras high court while directing the state government to sanction medical reimbursement benefit to a retired Sub-Inspector of Police.

Justice Pushpa Sathyanarayana gave the directive while disposing of a petition from K. Kamalakkannan.

According to petitioner, he is a pensioner having retired as Sub-Inspector of Police on August 31, 2017. He is a subscriber to the Tamil Nadu Government’s Health Insurance Scheme, 2014. Due to illness, his wife, who is the beneficiary under the said scheme, was admitted in SBS hospital in Krishnagiri district, which is one of the approved hospitals, covered under the scheme, on April 22, 2017 and underwent treatment till May 14, 2017, and thereafter, she took further treatment at Bengaluru. When the petitioner made a claim petition on June 13, 2017, the Krishnagiri District Treasury Officer rejected the said claim on the ground that the treatment was taken in non-network hospital and it cannot be considered as per the Government Orders in vogue. Therefore, he filed the present petition.

Quoting the judgment of the high court and Supreme Court, the judge said the petitioner was an uniformed service officer and having retired from service, he subscribed the health insurance schemes. His wife underwent treatment at SBS hospital, an approved hospital, for some time, and thereafter, she was given further treatment at Bengaluru. As observed by the Supreme Court, a very little scope was left to the petitioner to decide as to the manner in which the ailment should be treated and it was within the domain of the doctors, who specialised in a discipline, to advise the specialty Hospitals and treatment of specified ailments.

“In view of the categorical directions issued by the Apex court and this court, this court directs the authorities to sanction medical reimbursement benefit to the petitioner, after scrutinising the bills and release the eligible amount within four weeks”, the judge added.

Commuters said that the fog hanging over the city, early in the morning was making driving difficult this last week. "You have to wear warm clothes if you are riding a two-wheeler.

Parks are completely deserted in the morning as severe cold has made it difficult to venture out of your homes," said Mr Abhinand G., a law consultant who stays at Hongasandra, Bommanahalli.

Saturday was a little better as many flights were not affected, the authorities said. On Friday, 42 flights were delayed and eight diverted and the Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) was forced to suspend operations for almost an hour because of foggy conditions and low visibility.
