Conferring eminence Union Ministry of Human Resource Development (HRD) granted Institution of Eminence (IoE) status to six educational institutions. It includes 3 Institutions from Public Sector and 3 from Private Sector. Public Sector institutions are Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru (Karnataka); Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bombay (Maharashtra) and IIT, Delhi. Private Sector institutions are Birla Institute of Technology & Sciences, Pilani (Rajashtan); Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Manipal (Karnataka) and Jio Institute of Reliance Foundation in Pune (Maharashtra) under Green Field Project. The scheme of IoE was rolled out by University Grants Commission (UGC). It aims to help 20 higher education (10 public and 10 private) institutions from country break into top 500 global rankings in 10 years.
Continue Raising the quality of higher education across the board should be a priority In its report on higher education for 12 th Plan, the working group of the erstwhile Planning Commission identified expansion, inclusion and excellence as the three pillars for growth. The NDA government had the theme of excellence in its 2016 annual budget, with a proposal to make 10 institutions each in the public and private sectors globally competitive. Quite ambitiously(महत व क क ष ), the Ministry of Human Resource Development has taken the d ecision to give Institution of Eminence (IoE) status to 6 th institutes. Giving tag to Jio Institute, which is yet to come up, generated understandable controversy. It should be ensured that this conditional recognition is fulfilled transparently, and that it meets the requirements on governance structure, infrastructure and faculty within 3 years
Continue The idea of developing centres of higher learning advances the Nehruvian vision of building temples of modern India. The IoEs can become models of autonomy, academic innovation and equity of access, and lead to a transformation of higher education State universities had a low output because some of them had several faculty members recruited on contract basis, with no incentive to do research Public universities should be insulated from political pressures. Vicechancellors should be appointed on merit, free of ideological biases. With good governance structures and significant new financial grants, the selected public institutions will be able to innovate on courses and encourage research.
Continue The growth of these and other national institutions will also depend on policies to raise the expenditure on R&D as a percentage of GDP Among countries with a comparable research output, India with 0.8% R&D spending trails Russia, Brazil, South Korea and even Singapore, according to Unesco data. Islands of eminence can inspire, but the longterm goal should be to raise the quality of higher education in all institutions through academic reform. The quality is uneven, and at the bottom levels, abysmal.

Coming home to jail Why the Repatriation(द श-प रत य वर तन) of Prisoners Act, 2003 will prove to be a win win situation for India Ismail Samma of Gujarat(52), and the second, of a sick 21 year old, Jetendaera Arjanwara of Madhya Pradesh Both men had accidentally crossed the border with Pakistan and were sentenced for illegal entry. The right to return to one s home country is assured under Article 12 (4) of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. A sentence served in a foreign land, far away from family, familiar food and language, has been globally perceived to be more onerous(कष टद यक) than one served at home
Continue Therefore, the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, 1963 UN Model Agreement on the Transfer of Foreign Prisoners and Recommendations on the Treatment of Foreign Prisoners 1985, lays emphasis on the social rehabilitation of foreign prisoners through early repatriation to their home countries to serve their remaining sentence In consonance with these international humanitarian commitments, most countries have legisl ated on a Repatriation of Prisoners Act. Indian conditions India legislated its Repatriation of Prisoners Act in 2003, which came into force on January 1, 2004. The first part deals with the transfer of sentenced foreign national prisoners from India, while the second deals with the transfer of sentenced Indian nationals into India
Continue Repatriation to a prison in their home country under these conditions They are willing; Have no pending appeals; The offence is not an offence under military law; The sentence is not a death sentence; They have at least six months of their sentence still left to serve, Their transfer has the consent of both treaty countries. The Act is a significant one for a country such as India which sees considerable outflow and inflow annually by blue and white collar workers, fishermen, students, stateless persons and other groups- Several come into conflict with the law.
Continue The Minister of State for External Affairs told Parliament in March 2018 that there were as many as 7,850 Indian nationals in the prisons of 78 countries. Data on detentions from India s National Crime Records Bureau showed that at the end of 2015 there were 6,185 foreign national prisoners; 66% of them were from Bangladesh alone. They would be eligible for repatriation subject to nationality verification Effecting transfers under Repatriation of Prisoners Act, presents a win win situation for India as it need not spend unduly on the housing of foreign national prisoners. It can also save the cost of providing consular services abroad by bringing back Indian prisoners. It can simultaneously satisfy the public expectation of bringing nationals home and the meeting of international humanitarian commitments
