Notice to Govt. over affiliation

NEW DELHI, JULY 1. The Delhi High Court has issued notice to the Delhi Government on a plea by a private institute offering vocational courses seeking to continue its affiliation with the State Council for Vocational Training.

Justice S K Kual issued notice, returnable on August 2, to the State Government's Department of Training and Technical Education on a petition by Shoshan Unmoolan Parishad that runs Nanak Training Institutes at three places in the Capital.

The institute, through counsel O P Saxena, moved the Court after the SCVT declined to grant affiliation this year, even though it had been granting affiliation for the past ten years and told the society to get its affiliation from the National Council for Vocational Training. Thereafter, the NCVT was approached but the national body also refused to grant affiliation on the ground of lack of infrastructure, especially space, with the institute. Continuity was sought in affiliation by the institute for the sake of thousands of students currently undergoing training in stenography, tailoring and computer applications with it. The society has also sought land on concessional rates from the Delhi Development Authority so that it could offer the ``proper space'' required per student under the NCVT norms in future.
