KOCHI, FEB. 3. A Division Bench of the Kerala High Court today directed the Chief Secretary to file an affidavit explaining the steps taken by the Government to implement its earlier judgment banning political activities on the campuses of colleges and other educational institutions. The Bench comprising Justice K.S. Radhakrishnan and Justice M.N. Krishnan issued the directive while ordering police protection for the smooth functioning of the Government Polytechnic, Kalamassery, and preventing the entry of a former student into the campus. The court ordered that the affidavit be filed within two weeks. The directive came on a writ petition filed by the Parent-Teachers' Association of the Polytechnic. In the affidavit, the Principal submitted that outsiders were creating unrest on the campuses and in the hostel. In an affidavit filed in response to a writ petition for prohibiting campus politics, the Principal Secretary, Education, had suggested various measures to maintain discipline in educational institutions. The affidavit suggested that political activities should not be allowed on campuses. The Bench had made it clear that the universities and Government had a legal obligation to protect the rights of not only the management, principals, teachers of the affiliated colleges, but also the Government and aided college institutions. The court had issued various other directives, including ban on the use of mobile phones inside campuses. The court had also directed the Government to lay down appropriate rules and regulations in this regard.
B.Ed. case adjourned
Justice K. Padmanabhan Nair today posted to Friday for hearing the petition against the proceedings initiated by the Kozhikode Vigilance Court against the former Education Minister, Nalakath Soopy, and other Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) leaders on a charge of demanding money for sanctioning a B.Ed. college from the Metropolitan of the Malabar Jacobite Orthodox Syrian Church, Bishop Yuhannon Mar Philixinos. The petition was filed by P.C. Ahammed, general secretary, Wayanad district committee of the IUML, and N. Mamooty.
CBI probe ordered
The court ordered a CBI probe into the death of Nabeesa and her daughter-in-law at Mala in Thrissur. They were found dead in the house of Nabeesa on March 25, 2004. The Judge issued the order on a petition filed by the brother of Fousiya and another person. Another daughter-in-law of Nabeesa and her two children suffered injuries in an attack, believed to have been carried out at 9 p.m. on March 25, according to the petitioners. No persons had not been arrested so far, the petitioners alleged.
