Akhilesh Representation is good, however, you are making the matters complicated by suggesting a host of conditions like upper age. Further, blanket statement that permitting own scribes is a risky business, is derogatory to VC community. Keep the eligibility conditions simple as I have suggested time and again on this list, i.e. The scribe should not be ELIGIBLE to appear for , NET, in this instance, and should not have been so eligible for last three years.

Hello, We, at delhi planning to give a representation to UGC stating that we are not willing to accept their scribe from the next UGC exam. the next UGC net exam is likely to be held in December. I have prepared a draft, and signature campaign is on. I'm pasting the representation draft below for the suggestions and comments from all of you. Here it goes: ============= Dated: 05.07.2011 To, The chairman University Grant Commission, Bahadur shah zafar marg Delhi, Delhi - 110002 Sub: Regarding the Problem of Scribe of Visually-challenged aspirants In UGC Net Exams. Sir, With great sorrow and regret, we, the persons belonging to the visually-challenged community would like to draw your attention on the following points: 1. That the most of the times we are being provided the incompetent/ineligible/careless scribe during the UGC NET examination, and this very fact deprives us to solve even half of the question paper, regardless of the fact that one has worked hard and knows all the answers well. 2. For your kind consideration, Carelessness and misfeasance committed by the authorities appointed by UGC are being enumerated below, the outcome of which can easily be assessed: a. Hindi Medium candidates are being provided the English Medium scribe, and on the other hand, English medium candidates Hindi medium scribe; b. In most of the cases, Sanskrit medium students have failed even to solve the single question as the scribe provided by the concern examination centre was not able to read and write Sanskrit; c. There Are large amount of cases, when the visually-challenged candidates are forced to engage the clerical staff, and even in some cases D grade employees, thereby destroying our each and every possibilities of passing the NET exam; d. for Your consideration: i. Clerical staff don't write our exam seriously, they keep themselves busy in other official works; ii. A large amount of visually-challenged candidates are English medium, and the capability and ability to read and write English of clerical and D grade employees would be known to you keeping in view the standard of NET exam. 3. Therefore, with great respect we propose that in any case, and under any circumstances the visually challenged candidates are not willing to engage the scribe provided by the concern authorities, under the UGC rules and guidelines regarding the scribe for the NET exam. 4. We also propose that new guidelines regarding the scribe must be issued as soon as possible so as to they could be come in effect prior to the next UGC net exam which is about to be held likely in the month of December 2011. 5. Keeping in view the fact that permitting the visually-challenged candidates to bring his or her own scribe may prove to be a risky business, as few amongst us may bring and engage the scribe where the scribe may be competent and capable enough to solve the entire NET question paper by him or herself, we propose the following safeguards that must be taken into consideration while allowing the scribe in this connection: a. The scribe must be a person who is pursuing any undergraduate course in any university/college recognized by UGC, subject to the condition that the scribe should not be of the similar course for which the candidate is appearing for the UGC NET exam. b. The candidates those who are appearing for the Sanskrit and Music must essentially be allowed to engage the scribe of the similar course, as no other person can write and read Sanskrit well keeping in view the standard of the UGC NET exam except the person who is pursuing graduation in Sanskrit, and writing the theory of music involves notes writing with special signs, which can not be completed except by the person who knows it well. c. At the examination hall a scribe must produce the following documents: i. Original copy and photocopy of the Student I.D. card; ii. Original copy and photocopy of the mark sheet of the last exam passed; iii. The mark sheet must clearly state the name of the examination and the course as stated in student I.D. card; (I.E. both must be co-related); d. In any case, The Scribe must not be above the 25 years of age; e. A person pursuing masters degree may also be allowed as a scribe, subject to the condition that he is not pursuing the similar course for which the candidate is appearing for the UGC net exam. 6. University wise list of the visually-challenged students and candidates are attached with this application with their complete names and their signatures and LTIs as the case may be. Kindly take the affirmative, concrete and quick action in this regard, so that we can make right use of our studies and hard work, and could play a vital role in the progress and prosperity of our society by making our future better and bright. Thanking in anticipation, Yours faithfully, All the visually-challenged students and candidates agreeing and supporting the aforesaid points in its entirety. Copy to: 1. Chief Commissioner For persons with disabilities; 2. secretary to the ministry of Human resource development; 3. Secretary to the ministry of social justice and empowerment.
