General decision

The ERC while considering the cases of different institutions for the process of recognition / refusal it was observed.

i) There are institutions which made efforts to fulfill the required norms of land and other infrastructure but having a marginal short in the size of M.P. Hall less than 2000 sq.ft. even if the built up area is more than the required size i.e. 1500 sq mtrs.

ii) The ERC also observed that the DIETs and Govt. institutions supported under centrally sponsored scheme of Teacher Education though the institutions are very old with having adequate land much more than the required norms having a shortage of built-up area without the provision of Multi Purpose Hall in the existing infrastructure. The Committee is of the view that such Govt.-Institutions where sufficient scope for such expansion feasible be given relaxation and this should also be approved to N.E.R institutions where natural calamities and earthquakes are the casual phenomena.

iii) The ERC while considering few a Govt. institutions where process of filling up the vacant posts of teachers are going on, be given opportunity for early compliance instead of inspection u/s 17.

The ERC recommends relaxation by the Chairperson NCTE (I) and (II) above under the clause 12 of the Regulation 2009 and directions on (iii) if any.

Decision on para (1)

i) The Regional Director, ERC, please ensure efforts for the availability of the Report of the Review Committee of NRC to all members.

ii) Regional Director can not see the correctness of ERC decision. Above direction are not within the provisions of the regulation 1996.

iii) No comment on Para(II).

iv) No comment on the direction to R.D. on Para(iii) but to ensure the availability of all applications received, accepted, rejected to the Members for 2011-12 and strictly adhere to the rules and in case of confusion, clarification be sought from the NCTE, HQ

v) The compliance of ERC decision to be ensured and if any contravention is noticed to be placed before the ERC in next meeting.

vi) Decision on Refusal / Recognition to be issued in the right spirit in speaking order form.

vii) The NCTE HQ. may look to the above and issue directions for follow up action with regard to the submission of application for 2011-12, keeping 7(1A) Clause in mind.

viii) The R.D. is also advised to ensure the directions given and strictly adhere to the rules for 2011-12 and incase of any confusion, clear directions from the HQ be sought.
