Som Lalit runs into trouble
The Gujarat University on Tuesday issued a notice to Som-Lalit Education and Research Foundation run commerce college who did not cooperate with the monitoring committee.

The college did not furnish the details regarding the admission procedures adopted by it, said vice chancellor A.U. Patel.

The committee, empowered by the university, to look into the possible irregularities in the admission process by self-financed institutes, visited H L Commerce College and Som-Lalit College on Tuesday for the first time.

As demanded by the committee, H L Commerce college furnished the details but Som-Lalit College refused to cooperate with the visiting team and even misbehaved with the officials, Mr. Patel informed.

A student had complained to the university that Som Lalit College did not admit him in B Com course despite his name figuring in the merit list. The college even prepared a merit list of about 1,700 students as against its approved intake for 520 seats.

The university will take strong action against college authorities if it fails to furnish the details to monitoring committee, he added.

The eight-member committee headed by former vice chancellor of Gujarat University M.N. Desai comprises president of principals association Vadi Patel, noted literate Balchandra Joshi and director of Asia College Sourabh Choksi as members among others.
