Dear Sri Anand Sukumaran.

Thank you so much for your post and the table. I amust admit that this is an excellent venture on the part of AICTE and all the other professional Councils like MCI, VCI, DCI & & even UGC should introduce such norms and arrange to pass ordinance both at Central & State levels to make it mandatory for retaining recognition. However, there need to be certain specific issues underlying it so that Private run institutes can not introduce certain garbage in the form of cheap rated books make a mockery of the rules. As we see mushrooming of locally published journals with ISSN as the UGC made publication in journals with assigned ISSN a mandatory requirement for APR for teaching staff.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta

Dear Waghmare Saab:

Thank you for the excellent post. It is indeed superb!

Best Wishes,

Dear sir,

Thank you.

thankx for information.

Dear Sir,

I would like to know the definition of "course" . I mean, in MBA, there will be around 50+ subjects across the semesters. So, these 50 should be considered as "courses" to calculate required titles and volumes? 

Please clarify this.

Thanking you,

Prithviraj

When we started college in 2008, we had 4000 books of engineeering, we would increase our 2000 per year courses or 250 ??
