No Student will suffer even if deemed university status withdrawn - Kapil Sibal

In a bid to assuage students thrown into uncertainty, government Tuesday made it clear that not a single student of any failed deemed university would be affected and indicated scrapping of granting such status in future. "Not a single child, not a single student will be adversely affected. Students of that university will get a university degree," HRD Minister Kapil Sibal said addressing the Social Editors Conference in New Delhi. He was replying to a question as to what would happen to the future of the students of 44 deemed universities that have been recommended for being stripped of the status by an expert committee whose report has been accepted by the government.
Nearly two lakh students are pursuing higher studies in these 44 institutions in 13 states which have been recommended for non-continuation of the deemed status as neither on past performance nor on their promise for the future have the attributes to retain the deemed status. "We are restructuring the higher education sector. Hopefully, the deemed university concept will go," he said. Sibal said not a single deemed university has been derecognized so far. "The Government has accepted the findings of the expert committee and submitted its findings to the Supreme Court which will decide the course of action to be taken," he said

Vasundhara Raje slam Gehlot Government in Rajasthan

Former chief minister Vasundhara Raje lashed out at the Ashok Gehlot government alleging that the it was involved in ‘diversion politics’ rather than focusing on development. Raje also accused it of “drying out” the state exchequer in the past 13 months. She was addressing a press conference, along with state president Arun Chaturvedi, at the BJP headquarters on Monday. Commenting on corruption charges by the Congress, she said, “There was no corruption. If there was, let the Congress prove it.’’ Chaturvedi added the Gehlot government lacked vision and direction.“All these allegations are being made only to divert the voters’ attentions from development issues,’’ he said.“When the BJP was in power, the state, a part of the ‘Bimaru’ states earlier, was elevated to one with surplus budget. Where were these surplus funds used?,’’ asked Raje. She added that the chief minister himself and his finance secretary have officially accepted that the state is facing a major financial crunch. “Money was available and the state was doing fine till December 10, 2008. What had changed overnight that the Congress repeated its earlier statements of no money after December 13, 2008?’’ she said. The former chief minister alleged that the Congress government had failed to set up a single milestone during its present rule. Raje claimed that the government during the past 13 months, wrote 13 letters to the Centre and put 13 developmental projects of the BJP government on hold. She claimed the Gehlot government had written to the Centre, including Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Pranab Mukherjee and Sharad Pawar.

After the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965, Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri asked him to create a film based on the popular slogan Jai Jawan Jai Kissan (hail the soldier, hail the farmer). The result was Kumar's magnum opus and his directorial debut, Upkaar (1967). In it, he played both a soldier and a farmer. The film was also noted for the famous song Mere Desh Ki Dharti, written by Gulshan Bawra, composed by Kalyanji-Anandji and sung by Mahendra Kapoor. Upkaar was a hit and won Kumar his first Filmfare Best Director Award. After dabbling in various roles in the late 1960s, Manoj returned to patriotic themes in Purab Aur Paschim (1970), in which life in the East and West are juxtaposed. In 1972, he starred in Be-Imaan (for which he won the Filmfare Best Actor Award) and directed and starred in Shor (1972). The latter, opposite Jaya Bhaduri, was not a huge box office success, but it did feature the memorable song Ek Pyar Ka Nagma Hai, a duet by Lata Mangeshkar and Mukesh, which was composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal.
