25 Dec '12

Dear All, A phone call from Surender Kumar, ICAR, Indore broke a very sad news today. Mrs. Sushila A. Motiwale breathed her last on 24 December 2012. Mrs. Motiwale was a very good human being and a dedicated teacher. She instituted the 'IATLIS-Motiwale Best LIS Teacher Award' in 1980s to motivate and reassure the LIS teachers. In her last letter to me, she has expressed the desire that this is a national award and it should be equally given to best LIS teachers from all states and UTs in India. I had the opportunity to work with her for about six months in Jabalpur in 1985-86. I feel very sad on her demise. It is difficult for me to believe this news. Let us pray to God, the Almighty, to rest her soul in peace and provide courage to the family members to bear this irreparable loss. With a heavy and very sad heart, Jagtar Singh Dr. Jagtar Singh, President, Indian Association of Teachers of Library and Information Science (IATLIS) & Professor, Department of Library and Information Science, Punjabi University, Patiala Pin - 147 002 (India) Email: jagtar.kindu(a)gmail.com Tel: +91 (0)175 304 6179 (Work) +91 (0)175 228 2727 (Home) Fax: +91 (0)175 228 3073 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

SC relief to NET Candidates
by Kiran 24 Dec '12

24 Dec '12

Dear professional friends, See the today Times of India newspaper 24/12/2012 page no.3SC relief to NET candidatesTNN | Dec 24, 2012, 04.19 AM IST PUNE: In a relief to thousands of aspirants taking the national<http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/The-National>eligibility test (NET), the UGC has withdrawn its decision to increase the cut-off marks for clearing the NET, following a Supreme Court order on Friday. The UGC had increased the eligibility score by 15% without notice. The national educational testing bureau of the UGC conducts the NET for determining the eligibility for lectureship and for awarding junior research fellowship to ensure minimum standards for the entrants in the teaching profession and research. The NET is conducted in June and December every year. The UGC, however, made several changes in the June 2012 exam, including increasing the cut-off marks. The candidates learnt about the changes only when the UGC announced it a day after announcing the results of the exam on September 18. As per the initial notification, candidates belonging to the SC/ST sections needed 35, 35, and 60 marks respectively for qualifying papers 1, 2 and 3. The marks to be obtained by the OBCs were set as 35, 35, and 68 and for those belonging to the general category it was 40, 40, and 75. But, when the results were announced, candidates who would've been eligible as per the initial criteria failed to qualify. As per the new criteria, the percentage of marks to be scored by candidates belonging to different categories has been increased by 15%. This made several students file an affidavit with the SC against the UGC regarding change in norms. On Friday, the SC issued an order saying that the UGC's decision was invalid as it did not follow the exam policy in announcing the changes in cut-offs and that, too, in such a short period of time. An official at the University of Pune that conducts the NET exam said, "The SC decision is valid for all candidates who sat for the June 2012 examinations. The old cut-offs will be considered and new results will be announced." Dear friends let us hope for revised UGC-NET 2012 result soon. -- *G.
