IIT Kanpur will conduct its own
entrance test from 2013. This was decided at a meeting of the institute's
210-member senate today. The senate rejected Union Human Resource Development
Minister Kapil Sibal's 'one nation, one test' proposal.
Here's the text of the resolution passed by the Senate of IIT Kanpur:
The Senate of IIT Kanpur resolves that:
1) a. The recent IIT Council proposal on admissions to IITs is academically and methodically unsound and in violation of the Institutes of Technology Act (1961) and IIT Kanpur Ordinances (Ordinance 3.2 (Admissions)).
b. In view of the Senate resolution adopted in its 2011-12/9th meeting held on April 10, 2012, invoking Ordinance 3.2 the Senate resolves that IIT Kanpur will conduct the entrance examination for admissions to its undergraduate programmes in 2013.
c. Given the present exigency, the Senate authorizes the Chairman Senate to constitute a Committee with the help of DOAA for conducting JEE 2013 by IIT Kanpur.
d. The Undergraduate Admissions Committee will organize the entrance examination and counselling, and deal with all other matters pertaining to the undergraduate admissions in 2013.
e. To the extent possible, the committee will coordinate with other IITs to conduct the entrance examination jointly.
2) In order that the views of the IIT Kanpur Senate on the issue of undergraduate admissions are represented in the public domain adequately and accurately, the Senate authorizes the following senators as its spokespersons till further order: Profs. Y. N .Mohapatra, Harish Karnick, Somenath Biswas, H. C. Verma, A. K. Chaturvedi, C. S. Upadhyay and Deepak Gupta.
3) IITK Senate reiterates the stand it took as represented by its Chairman in the May 12, 2012 meeting of the IIT council. Consequently the Senate resolves to record its forceful dissent of the Council resolution related to JEE. This dissent may be recorded by a letter to the Chairman, IIT Council and Chairman, BOG from the Chairman Senate.
