Fatehabad: All the self- financing colleges affiliated under Kurukshetra University (KU) and imparting B Ed degree course, in order to carry out in the state, need the accreditation of the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). In order to check the mushrooming of B Ed degree colleges in Haryana, KU and the National Council of Teachers Education (NCTE) together have taken the strict stance.
As per sources, the University, to all self-financing colleges and institutions affiliated to it, in written has asked them to seek grading from the NAAC before April 1, 2010, failure of which would lead to withdrawal of additional intake of students granted to them. The recent restriction levied by the university is likely to check such practices and ensure that the colleges follow a better academic standard.
According to a letter written by the university asking the colleges to strictly follow the NCTE regulations said that after the promulgation of the Regulations in 2005, accreditation from NAAC (with a Letter Grade B under the new grading system developed by it before April 1) becomes necessary for an institution that has been given the permission for an additional intake of B Ed and B P Ed teachers' training courses, failing to which the college shall stand withdrawn with effect from the academic session 2010-11.
Further, according to the regulations of the Council, with prior approval of the NCTE, the institutions, even after the completion of three years, which have been running on rented premises, have been directed to immediately shifted to their permanent premises failing which the, their recognition shall stand cancelled.
