JNUSU Pamphlet dated 5th Sept, '07
05-09-07
9 girl students of Sanskrit Centre have submitted a written complaint to the VC against the Chairperson of the Centre accusing him of sexual harassment. JNUSU is committed to ensure a gender sensitive campus, such acts being completely unacceptable. We demand that the GSCASH must immediately start enquiry into the allegations and strict action be taken against the guilty.
OUR STRUGGLE FOR SCHOLARSHIPS LONG LIVE!!
Friends,
This is to inform the student community that disbursement of the scholarships for M.Phil/PhD students worth Rs 3000 and Rs 5000 per month respectively has been started by the Administration. Office orders in this regard are being sent to the respective centres, in the name of individual students who are receiving no scholarships. All the students who have applied for the scholarship will receive the office order by the end of this week. We appeal to the students to contact their respective centres to get a copy of the office order and fill up the claim forms to get the scholarships.
While it is a result of the consistent pressure of the student community that the Administration has started the process of disbursal of scholarships, the cut off date has been fixed at April 2007. The JNUSU has consistently demanded that the cut off date for the scholarships should be July 2005. It is unfortunate that the Administration is not honoring its own commitment on 12th July 2007 to disburse scholarships with effect from July 2005. In today’s Council Meeting the JNUSU will decide on a future course of action to pressurize the Administration to disburse the scholarships from July 2005.
At the same time, the Administration after the agitation during the summer vacations had agreed to increase the amount of MCM for BA/MA/MSc/MCA students to Rs 1500 and increase the income cap to Rs 1 lakh. Till date the Administration has taken no concrete step to implement its own commitment. We demand that the Administration must immediately call for an Academic Council meeting to ratify the increased amount of MCM as well as the income cap for the eligibility for MCM scholarships.
We appeal to the student community to rally behind the JNUSU in future struggles for more scholarships.
Sd/-Dhananjay, President, JNUSU.
SFI pamphlet dated 5th Sept, '07
Date: 05-09-07
9 girl students of Sanskrit Centre have submitted a written complaint to the JNU VC against the Chairperson alleging him of sexual harassment. This is a very serious allegation. Such acts should not be tolerated in JNU. The GSCASH should immediately enquire into the allegations and strict action must be taken against the guilty.
OUR STRUGGLE FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE LONG LIVE!!
Friends,
We congratulate the student community for successfully pressurizing the Administration for starting the disbursal of scholarships for MPhil/PhD students worth Rs 3000 and Rs 5000 per month. The JNUSU under the leadership of SFI-AISF has been at the forefront of the struggles to ensure more scholarships for students and increasing the amount of MCM. While the starting of the process of disbursal of scholarships for MPhil/PhD students is welcome, it is unfortunate that the Administration has fixed the cut off date at April 2007. The JNUSU has been consistently demanding that the scholarships must be disbursed with effect from July 2007. SFI appeals to the JNUSU to formulate a proper course of action in tonight’s Council Meeting to pressurize the Administration to disburse the scholarships from July 2005. At the same time, the Administration has taken no step to implement its own decision of increasing the MCM for BA/MA/MSc/MCA students to Rs 1500 and increase the income cap for MCM to Rs 1 lakh. The Council should also deliberate on this matter.
It is unfortunate that the Convenors for different schools and committees have not been elected as yet, while we have reached the fag end of the tenure of this JNUSU. This state of affairs is a result of the JNUSU General Secretary’s refusal for the entire last semester to call for Council Meeting until he was given a written requisition on behalf of the councillors of SFI-AISF. The Youth For (In) Equality in the most undemocratic manner boycotted whatever Council Meeting that took place thereby not allowing any formal Council Meeting to take place. The JNUSU General Secretary as well as the YFE owe an explanation to the student community for not allowing a formal Council Meeting to take place, thereby not allowing the election of Convenors of different schools.
Sd/- Rajiv Kumar Ranjan, Secretary, SFI-JNU.
Sd/- Roshan Kishore, President, SFI-JNU.
