~JBN DElH!: The Delhi governmenthas approved a bill to upgradethe Netaji Subhash Institute ofTechnology currently affiliatedto Delhi University, into a sepa-rate state university The govern-ment gave its nod to the bill in acabinet meeting on Monday andit will be tabled in the assemblysession beginning Tuesday.

"Up-gradation to universitystatus will result in consider-able increase in the intake ofstudents at UG, PG and PhDlevels over a period of time,"the Delhi government said in astatement.

The government said thatgranting the state university sta-tus to the NSrr is in consonancewith the spirit of recommenda-tion of the National KnowledgeCommission (NKC), which hasemphasized creation of synergybetween education and researchin the higher technical educationinstitutions;

"This will benefit the studentsof Delhi as presently we are onlyable to admit around 3,000 stu-dents in various courses. But afterbecoming a state university wewill be able to expand and admitaround 12,000 students in BTech,MTech and PhD courses," saidYogesh Singh, director of NSrr.

At present, the number of stu-dents at the undergraduate level

I is 832, at the postgraduate andPhD level 69 and 30 respectively.

It has a total strength of about3,500 students.

However, the move has beencriticised by the Delhi UniversityTeachers' Association (DUTA)which said that since NSITis affiliated to DU hence thematter should first go to theUniversity's Executive Councilfor approval. "We are opposedto any such move to take NSIT.out of DU and make it a stateuniversity This is against theDU Ad," said NanditaNarain,president DUTA.

But Singh rejected such appre-hensions and said that NSrr hasa Memorandum of Associationand any the move to give it theuniversity status would not go

. against the DU Act. "NSIT has aMoA with Delhi University andafter becoming a separate uni-versity we will only be a teach-ing and research university,"Singh said.

Meanwhile, Delhi Universityofficials said that they were notaware of the development. ·"1amnot aware of this developmentso I cannot comment," saidSudhish Pachauri, DU's provice-chancellor.

As the Budget Session of theDelhi Assembly is

scheduled to begin onTuesday, the Delhi Cabinet onMonday approved two Bills tobe introduced in the session:a Bill to amend the DelhiUrban Shelter ImprovementBoard (DUSIB) Act andanother Bill to accorduniversity status to NetajiSubhas Institute of Technology(NSIT).

According to the AAPGovernment, the amendmentto the DUSIB Act, 2010 wasnecessitated as Section 2(g) ofthe Act is in contradiction tothe Section 3(2) of NationalCapital Territory of DelhiLaws (Special Provisions)

Second Act, 2011, passed byParliament.

While Section 2(g) of theDUSIB Act says that any groupof jhuggis can be declared a'jhuggi jhopri basti' for thepurpose of rehabilitation if itis inhabited by at least by 50households as existing onMarch 31, 2002.

However, Section 3(2) ofNational Capital Territory ofDelhi Laws (SpecialProvisions) Second Act saysthat "the status quo has to bemaintained for thoseencroachments existing onpublic land - including slumdwellers and jhuggi clusters ason January 1, 2006".

So in a bid to cover thejhuggies which might havecome from March 31, 2002 toJanuary 1, 2006 for thepurpose of rehabilitation, theDelhi Cabinet has decided toamend the Section 2(g) ofDUSIB Act. The move is saidto be aimed to "bring inconformity with Section 3(2)of Delhi Special Laws tofacilitate rehabilitation ofjhuggi jhopri basti"

The Cabinet also approveda Bill to give university status

Parliament.

While Section 2(g) of the DUSIBi Act says that any group of jhuggis: can be declared a 'ihuggi jhopri

basti' for the purpose of: rehabilitation if it is inhabited by at

least by 50 households as existingon March 31, 2002.
