Controversies

Warrants of arrest issued to Directors of AMITY

Amity Business School:-Warrants of arrest issued by German Judicial authorities against S/Shri Ashok Kumar Chauhan and Arun Kumar Chauhan, Directors of AMITY International, Ghaziabad, U.P. exist and the Interpol has issued Red-Corner-Notice Nos. 453/1990 and 459/1998 respectively at the request of Interpol Wiesbaden.

Behind Amity International’s flashy promos lie international arrest warrants against its directors Ashok and Arun Kumar Chauhan, and an extradition request for duping German banks. Ajmer Singh reports

Twenty-two sprawling campuses. 35,000 students. 130 professional degree courses. That’s the Amity universe. But what these promos fail to mention is that Amity directors Ashok Kumar Chauhan and Arun Kumar Chauhan also face an international arrest warrant. Interpol has issued a Red Corner Notice against them for alleged frauds committed in Federal Republic of Germany. The German Embassy has requested the Indian government for extradition, but the Chauhans have successfully evaded arrest/extradition for close to a decade. Ashok first went to Germany as a student, from western UP, and stayed on to trade in chemicals.

Ashok and Arun duped banking institutions not only in Germany, but elsewhere too. The Delhi High Court, on a petition filed by US-based Formossa Plastics Corporation, had restrained them from disposing of or otherwise encumbering properties standing/acquired in the names of the Ritnanad Balved Education Foundation (Ashok is the founder president of the foundation which runs Amity institutions), Ritnanad Balved Medical Foundation, Europa Foundation and his Trust Foundation

On another petition filed by kreiss Bank, Germany, the Delhi High Court attached bank accounts worth Rs 15 crore of Ashok and his family. A Netherlands-based company, kivo, also filed a suit against the Chauhans for recovery of approximately Rs 10 crore, the bill for purchase of materials from the company.


Aicte withdraws approval of courses to Amity Business School, Noida

The All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE) has decided to withdraw approval for conduct of PGDM (full time) and PGDM (part time) courses to Amity Business School Noida, from the academic year 2005-06. Consequent upon withdrawal of AICTE approval, the Council decided to transfer and distribute the students already admitted in the Amity Business School, among other approved institutions in the nearby locality.

The decision has been taken after the Expert Committees of AICTE visited Amity Business School of Noida on several occasions during the last few years and show cause notices had been issued for violating norms and standards set by the Council. Expert Committees visited Amity Business School, Noida recently on July 27, 2005 and August 5, 2005 and found serious deficiencies and violation of Norms and Standards. Amity Business School was also found to conduct large number of unapproved courses in the same premises (some even in collaboration with foreign universities which require mandatory approval from the AICTE) utilizing the facilities and infrastructure intended for AICTE approved courses, thus diluting the standards of education. As it is, the Institute has violated building laws and also lacks requisite built-up area as per AICTE norms. It was also found that the admission process followed by the Institute was not transparent and is involved in commercialization of education by charging exorbitant fee from students.

AICTE in exercise of its mandate to ensure maintenance of norms and standards insists on fulfillment of the minimum requirements prescribed for imparting technical education by institutions, so that quality of courses is not compromised. This body conducts Annual inspection and surprise inspection under Section 10 (p) of AICTE Act. Experts drawn from premier institutions participate in this exercise to identify violations of norms and standards. It conveys the deficiencies to the institutions for rectification. In spite of repeated advice to comply with minimum norms and standards, many institutions continue to be complacent about taking steps to remedy the deficiencies. This has evoked grave concern amongst all the stake holders.


Amity student commits suicide

Apparently depressed at being marked absent in an examination in which he had appeared and scored good marks, a 21-year-old student of Amity School of Technology and Management in Gurgaon allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself in his house at Farsh Bazar in East Delhi on Thursday.

According to the police, the incident came to light when parents of Harsh Khatri, a resident of Farsh Bazar, woke up this morning and found him hanging from the ceiling. Subsequently, the police were informed. A suicide note was also recovered from the spot.

In the note, Harsh purportedly wrote that he had appeared in a particular examination in the first semester but a teacher marked him absent for unexplained reasons. Later, he applied for re-checking of records.

As per the note, it was found that Harsh had indeed appeared in that examination and scored over 66 per cent marks. However, the note further said that he was asked to re-appear in the paper.

It was also alleged in the note that the institute did not pay heed to repeated requests of his father, a bank official, to revoke the notice for re-appearing. Depressed by the manner in which the episode unfolded in the past few months, Harsh allegedly decided to end his life.

The police said the inquest proceedings in the case have been initiated. They added that the contents of the note would be verified and any further action would be taken accordingly
