SKUAST scandal: No backdoor entries please
This refers to news item titled “Backdoor open at SKUAST-K” (GK March 30, 2011). I congratulate GK for exposing the admission scandal in SKUAST-K. This anomaly has denied hundreds of young agriculture, veterinary, horticulture, forestry, fisheries graduates their right of admission to M.Sc courses in a public-funded university. Had your esteemed paper not unearthed the scandal, we would have remained in dark and the university authorities would have been encouraged to repeat such illegal acts. That would have badly damaged the prospect of our educated youth. I have taken up the matter, on the basis of your reporting, with the Governor of the state for an impartial and in-depth enquiry for the benefit of the society at large. Let it prove as a deterrent so that such irregularities don't happen in future.
