Nagpur - Gondwana varsity to begin with semester pattern
Maharashtra's newest university - Gondwana - in Gadchiroli may be still awaiting formal inauguration but its officials are making sure it makes an impressive debut. Its first vice-chancellor Vijay Ainchwar and his team have drawn up ambitious plans to make the university, located in tribal area, as one of the best in country. Though other traditional universities, including Nagpur, are struggling to introduce semester pattern in postgraduate courses, GU will have this pattern even for undergraduate programmes. "Our first session from 2012-13 would begin with semester and Choice Based Credit System (CBCS)," Ainchwar said.
The VC has roped in renowned architect Ashfaq Ahmed who made designs for Gorewada Zoo for preparing a 'master plan' for the university that includes administrative complex as well as various department buildings. "These buildings would have state-of-the-art infrastructure and would be self-contained. Each department would have its laboratories, staff quarters, library, hostel, computer lab and auditorium apart from classrooms," he added.Ainchwar said that funds were not a problem as Tribal Development Corporation had granted Rs 5 crore to the university, to be carved out of Nagpur University with a view to develop Naxal affected district. "Even UGC and state government would provide funds," he said. The VC disclosed they planned to admit all students online and had already started preparations for it. "We have appointed Namdeo Kokode as Board of College and University Director (BCUD) who is making all out efforts to get the job done," Ainchwar said.
The university would commence short-term courses specially designed for students from tribal areas. "Initially, 10 courses including those like extracting honey, how to catch snakes and extract poison to be used for medicinal purpose would start. These would help candidates get employed locally," the former principal of SP College in Chandrapur said.
GU has a logo with green and yellow stripes depicting tribal lifestyle and its website is getting final touches. Vinayak Irpate and BS Rathod have joined as registrar and Finance and Accounts Officer (FAO) respectively. The university has advertised for the posts of Controller of Examination (CoE) and librarian.
Ainchwar informed they had identified 151 acre land on Chamorshi road a part of which was Zudpi jungle. "We have submitted application to the collector and other authorities and are hopeful of being allotted that. We are focusing on 10-acre land we already have which was earlier part of NU's Gadchiroli sub-centre," he said.
Fact-file:
* GU will formally opened after ZP and municipal elections
* It will be state's newest university after Solapur in 2004
* NU to be bifurcated for second time after creation of Amravati university in 1983
* GU will affiliate 177 colleges in Chandrapur and Gadchiroli districts

News -Nagpur University's PRO post falls vacant again
Nagpur University's public relations officer's (PRO) post, which remained in limelight for all the wrong reasons due to criticism from media as well as NU bosses, became vacant from Wednesday, highly-placed sources revealed.
In a major overhaul in NU's administrative set-up, the authorities had promoted four senior officers of assistant registrar's level. Among them was PRO Sanjay Bahekar who faced the wrath from NU bosses for his apparent failure to avoid negative reports emerging in media. The media too was critical of him as he failed to provide relevant information. 'No comments' was his favourite response to any query.
Sources said Bahekar, who was entrusted with the additional charge of PRO section in 2007, was disinterested in taking it up as he was already burdened with full-time charges of NU's general administration department (GAD) and also of publication section.
Though Bahekar confirmed the promotion news and declined to comment as usual, sources disclosed that he had already informed his seniors of relieving him of the charge. An unwell registrar Mahesh Yenkie was not available for comments.
Along with Bahekar, who was elevated as deputy registrar (pre-exam), Anil Hirekhan, FK Bhagat and Sanjay Chimalwar were also promoted to NU's development, academic and college sections, respectively. While Hirekhan and Chimalwar were posted with the exam section, Bhagat was looking after college section earlier.
With the university bereft of a PRO, students now have no place to go for guidance. The Nagpur University has never appointed a fulltime person in the post.
