Indore: To check presence of ghost faculties in country’s homoeopathy colleges, Central Council of Homeopathy plans to issue Unique Identification Number to every college and Unique Teacher’s Code to every faculty member. Council has taken a clue from Medical Council of India, which has launched measures to keep check on ghost teachers in medical colleges.

“To curb menace of duplicity, all the teachers of homoeopathic colleges upon submission of their details through prescribed online form will be issue with unique teacher’s code,” an order released by Council stated on Monday. The colleges are also directed to upload information of faculty members and principals will be responsible for ensuring that uploaded data is correct.

“The move is aimed to expose ghost faculty that is arranged by certain homoeopathic colleges during the inspection to show that they have required strength of teachers to run their colleges,” scientific advisory committee member of AYUSH Ministry Dr AK Dwivedi said.

Every faculty will be issued a Unique Teachers Code, which can be easily checked by council inspectors anywhere along with information of salary and work status of faculty on a real time basis. “Some private colleges have either ghost medical faculties or guest lecturers to teach students and same faculty members are registered with many colleges simultaneously.

This malpractice will end when details of faculty members get uploaded and linked with a particular code,” he said. “This will improve education level in homoeopathy colleges and also create transparency in teaching. The similar orders will be released by the ministry for Ayurvedic, Unani and other colleges,” Dr Dwivedi added.
