As we know - AICTE ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_India_Council_for_Technical_Education ) has made some sort of MoU with Microsoft and Autodesk . This is a great danger to FOSS community. AICTE in 2008, there were 2388 approved engineering colleges, with a total student intake capacity of 8.2 lakh students. AICTE is just selling ( http://techrights.org/2010/10/16/aicte-sellout/ ) these engineering student. learning proprietary skills is not needed in todays competitive market where we have a huge scope for FOSS based skill set. Almost every company has shifted towards FOSS (Free and OpenSource Software). 495 Super-Computers out of 500 runs on GNU/Linux. I have filled up an RTI some month ago to AICTE for the discloser of MoU to AICTE ( http://techrights.org/2010/10/21/aicte-challenged/ ) but they have refused to give details of MoU.
On what grounds have they refused to give you the MOU - you should appeal since they have no basis to hide a MOU with a vendor.
