Special Correspondent CHENNAI

AIADMK coordinator O. Panneerselvam has hailed the Centre’s decision to provide 27% reservation for the Other Backward Classes (OBCs) in all-India quota (AIQ) seats for undergraduate and postgraduate medical courses as a “revolutionary step”.

Expressing his “happiness, gratefulness and appreciation” to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the “historic decision” that fulfilled the long-standing demand of the people of Tamil Nadu, the AIADMK leader, in a letter on Friday, said the development would “greatly benefit” thousands of students belonging to the OBCs every year, and generate a “new form of social justice” in the country.

“It reflects your commitment and concern to the welfare of the backward classes,” Mr. Panneerselvam said.

MADURAI: If you are passionate about something, you must find a way to do it. Taking this TED talk kind of advice to heart, comes a man, from the shadows, with a taste for expensive bikes. While most would call him a thief, an outlaw, this man’s modus operandi was to ‘briefly’ steal bikes, ride them and return them. No harm, no foul?

The ‘perfect crime’ came to the attention of the police when a series of two-wheeler thefts were reported in the past few days in Madurai city, Karimedu and Tallakulam. All the thefts stood out because they had a similar pattern.

Now if you own bikes that are cheap and reliable, we have good news for you. Your thriftiness might have just saved you because our bike thief prefers only expensive bikes. Well, from his perspective it might seem like he ‘borrowed’ those bikes and rode it because he would always return the vehicle to its original place. The crime went on smoothly until it was captured by the CCTV cameras and from there the identity of the bike thief came to light. The police nabbed 21-year-old youth P Naveen Kumar from Sellur early this week.

According to the Karimedu police, Kumar has a ‘passion’ for expensive bikes. “Whichever brands he liked, he stole them at night and after riding them for a few days, he left the stolen vehicles in their original spots. He had stolen at least three two wheelers in the past few weeks,” the police said.

To err is indeed human as Kumar, who had meticulously planned his crime, was arrested when he was identified by the CCTV footage from the areas where the vehicles were stolen. Two bikes which could not be returned to their original place were seized from him.

COIMBATORE: Anna University former Vice-Chancellor (V-C) E Balagurusamy on Saturday appealed to Tamil Nadu governor Banwarilal Purohit to streamline the working of the V-C search committee at the university to eliminate corrupt practices.

In his letter, he charged that powerful intermediaries used to influence the selection of VCs on the basis of caste, religion, political connections, and money power four years ago. “An eminent academician in Tamil Nadu said in a public forum that the price of the VC [post] rages from Rs 5 to 20 crore,” he said, adding that corruption was involved even in the appointment of the syndicate members.

Balagurusamy mooted a eight-point procedure to be followed in the selection and appointment of VCs. As part of the procedure, he said that the panel members should be of high standing with impeccable integrity. Before recommending the names to the Chancellor, the committee must obtain clearance from the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption and “integrity” certificates from the last employer. Further, the candidates must declare in advance that any attempt to influence the selection process would automatically disqualify them, he said.

CM writes to Union minister, objects to draft PG medical edu norms

CHENNAI: The State government has raised strong objection to the Draft Post Graduation Medical Education Regulations released recently by the National Medical Commission. Chief Minister MK Stalin, in a letter to Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare Mansukh Mandavia, said the draft regulations intend to undermine the role of the States in the postgraduate medical education since their role in admission of students under their own State quota is sought to be unilaterally removed.

“It is unfortunate that such draft regulations have been formulated without a proper understanding of the predominant role of State Governments in this domain. The Union Government and the National Medical Council need to appreciate the fact that the States had heavily invested their resources to create most of the PG seats. Considering this, our State has consistently been opposed to such measures aimed at centralisation of States’ powers,” the CM said. He added that the proposed regulation is not only unacceptable but is also in contravention of the provisions in the National Medical Commission (NMC) Act, governing the common counselling for the seats at the State level.

“In this connection, I would like to draw your kind attention to Section 11.2 of the draft PG Regulations, which attempts to centralise and designate the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India as the designated authority for counselling for State quota seats, he said, pointing out that the section is clearly contrary to the provision in Section 15 of the Main NMC Act, 2019, which explicitly mentions that “the designated authority of the State Government shall conduct the common counselling for the seats at the State level,” the Chief Minister added.

Noting that Tamil Nadu has consistently expressed objection to the proposed National Exit Test as well as the proposal to make it the basis of admissions to PG seats, Stalin said that the draft regulations are totally against the consistent and principled stand of our State government.

“Any hasty attempts, as brought out in the draft regulations, aimed at changing the present methodology of counselling for the State quota seats against the provision of the NMC Act and the proposal to make the National Exit test as the basis of PG admissions in future, should be immediately stopped,” he urged.

Chief minister M K Stalin on Saturday said the state government would give priority to first-generation graduates in jobs in the government sector and instructed authorities to develop training modules and courses in government training centres for youngsters to excel in competitive examinations.

Chairing a review meeting of officials in finance and human resources department at the secretariat, he instructed officials to take measures to help youngsters from the state clear competitive exams. To achieve it, right training programmes should be designed, he said.

Meanwhile, authorities should create awareness among youngsters about employment opportunities available in Union and state governments, he said. He stressed the need for special training for government employees to enhance the quality of service rendered to the public. For this, quality of training should improve at Anna Institute of Management and other government institutions. He asked senior bureaucrats to utilise existing facilities at the civil service training institute at Bhavanisagar to conduct online training for government employees to enhance their abilities. TNN

Only 23 of 8L students enroll for Class XII supplementary exam

Only 23 of 8L students enroll for Class XII supplementary exam

Chennai:01.08.2021

Of the 8.16 lakh state board students who received their Class XII marks under the weightage system followed by the Tamil Nadu school education department, only 23 — all regular school students — have expressed their intention to appear for the supplementary exams saying they were not happy with their marks, school education minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi told reporters on Saturday.

“The school education department had announced that the students who are aggrieved with their marks under the weightage system need to write the written exam in all subjects and their marks in exams will be the final score. Due to this only a few students applied,” he said.

The supplementary exam for private candidates will be conducted from August 6 to19. “Including the late applicants, 45,654 students, mainly private candidates, will sit for the exams,” the minister added.

After declaring the Class XII results, the directorate of government examinations gave the opportunity for aggrieved students to apply for supplementary exams from July 23 to 27. The state government had given a weightage of 50% for Class X marks and 20% for Class XI and 30% for Class XII internal assessment and practical marks.

Asked about the reopening of schools, the minister said, “We will decide after getting the opinion of health experts.” The school education department had directed all teachers working in government schools to report for duty on August 2.

Meanwhile, many CBSE schools received complaints from parents that the marks awarded to their wards were not satisfactory. Around 100 parents who had enrolled their children at NEET coaching integrated programme at Velammal Group of Schools in Mogappair protested on Saturday complaining that their wards who scored high in Class X had received very low marks in Class XII.

“The school management assured the parents that they would discuss the issue with their teachers and would appeal to the board if needed to increase the score. The parents were asked to come on Monday,” Krishnaveni, a parent from the school said.
