BAN ON POLITICAL ACTIVITIES

BAN ON POLITICAL ACTIVITIES

Introduction

In the light of the Supreme Court verdict which reads as under.

“Students’ indulgence in political activities in the college shall be strictly prohibited.”

“We, therefore, hereby direct that at the time of admission to an educational institution the student and his parent/guardian shall give an undertaking that the student shall not indulge in politics failing which he shall not be allowed admission. And if after the admission, he violates such undertaking i.e. “indulges himself in politics” he shall be expelled from the institution without any further notice. All the educational institutions shall henceforth seek and obtain similar undertaking in respect of all existing enrolled students.

It is explained that the finding with regard to “indulgence in politics” given by the Head of institution under his seal and signature shall be final and shall not be questioned except only before the Supreme Court”.

The specimen of undertaking given on the following page has to be filled and signed by the student and his father/guardian on judicial paper and attested by a competent authority to be produced at the time of interview/admission.

Unless a candidate is granted admission to the college, there is no need of producing the undertaking along with the Admission Form. It should be produced at the time of interview / admission.
