Colleges Allowed To Fill Vacant B.Ed Seats Which Are Currently Lying Vacant In Punjab And Haryana
By Dikshit Dass, Section News
The Punjab and Haryana High Court today allowed recognised, eligible and affiliated colleges in states of Punjab and Haryana to fill up the vacant B.Ed seats on the basis of merit in the qualifying examinations.
The development is significant as several thousand seats for B.Ed course are currently lying vacant in the two states. Pronouncing the orders in an open court on a bunch of petitions, the Division Bench of Chief Justice Tirath Singh Thakur and Justice Jasbir Singh allowed the pleas "but only in part and to the extent" that "the colleges, duly recognised by the NCTE and affiliated to the universities in the states of Punjab and Haryana and those who have been included in the list of colleges eligible for admitting students by the university holding the CET, shall be free to fill up the seats that are lying vacant by admitting suitable candidates eligible for such admissions to the B.Ed courses." The Bench ruled the "admissions against the excess seats shall be made only on the basis of merit of the candidates in the qualifying examination. In the event of seats being less than the number of candidates seeking admission to any college, the college shall grant admission strictly in accordance with the inter-se merit of the candidates.

The Bench further ruled: "The College shall conclude the admission process and submit a list of candidates admitted by them to the university concerned latest by December 5".
Making it clear that the "institutions shall not grant any admission to any candidate after December 5 for academic session 2008-09, the Bench asserted: In the event of violation of these directions, the university concerned and NCTE shall initiate proceedings for withdrawal of recognition and for de-affiliating the defaulting college/colleges. In an attempt to enable the students to cover up the portion they could not study due to late admissions, the Bench said the colleges admitting students against the excess seats pursuant to the order, "shall take steps to ensure that special classes are held by them so that the candidates are in a position to complete 180 working days and other requirements of attendance and practice teaching etc. "The universities shall not, by reason of this order, relax its academic standard stipulated for the courses in any manner whatsoever. The admissions granted shall not exceed the intake capacity of the colleges. Any default thereof, shall expose the college to risk of de-recognition and withdrawal of affiliation". Before parting with the orders, the Bench added: In the totality of circumstances, the unfilled excess seats available with the institutions, could be allowed to be utilised by the institutions by admitting students, who are otherwise eligible as per the NCTE norms.
