The amendment to the IIT Act, 1961 is likely to come up in the winter session of Parliament, which will start on December 8.
The govt. plans to add the names of 8 new IITs and IT-BHU in the list of IITs by amending the IIT Act. Before IIT Act is amended, govt. has to complete all the necessary formalities and ensure that all pending issues pertaining to the institutes under the Act are resolved. For example, locations of new IITs are to be finalized, and finance allocation is to be reconfirmed with Planning Commission.
Our alumni volunteers and institute administration are meeting HRD ministry officials and other govt. officials almost every month to follow up with the matter. According to informed sources, conversion of our institute to IIT is under active consideration by the HRD ministry. It is hoped that the conversion will be complete before the start of next academic session, i.e. latest by July 2009.

Govt. to amend Institutes of Technology Act, for new IITs
http://www.zeenews. com/Nation/ 2008-09-23/ 471310news. html
New Delhi, Sept 23: The government will table an amendment to the Institutes of Technology Act, 1961, in the coming session of Parliament to make the new IITs eligible to award degrees to students.
The new IITs, started this year, are operating as societies at present. To be an institute with power to award degrees, the names of the new IITs have to be incorporated into the existing Act.
"A draft of the Institute of Technology (Amendment) Bill, 2008, is ready. It will be tabled in Parliament in the coming session," a senior official in HRD Ministry said.
Six new IITs have been started in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Orissa, Punjab and Gujarat from this year. Academic activities in these institutes are either run by mentor IITs or in temporary campuses.
"They have been started as societies. If the Act is not amended and their names are not incorporated into the Act, they cannot award degrees. A society cannot award degrees to students," the official said.
The Act was earlier amended in 1994 when IIT Guwahati came into existence.
Of the seven existing IITs, the ones at Delhi, Mumbai, Kanpur, Guwahati and Chennai had come up as registered societies.
After the amendment, the new IITs will act as autonomous bodies and take up their own activities. They can design their courses and will enjoy financial autonomy as well, the official said.
Apart from six new IITs, which have already started functioning, two new IITs will come up in the state of Madhya Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh. There is also a proposal to upgrade the Institute of Technology, BHU, into an IIT.
The new institutes have recruited students. However, they do not have campuses and directors. The directors and chairmen of board of governors of the mentor IITs are acting as directors and chairmen of the new IITs.
The government has allocated Rs 2,000 crore in the 11th Plan for these institutes. State governments have provided 500 to 600 acres of land for establishment of each of the new IITs.

(Chronicle note: We are sad to announce the untimely demise of our alumnus, Rahul Sharma from Ceramic 2005. He died on November 04, 2008 in a tragic accident in his hometown in Bihar. May his soul rest in peace. Chronicle team, along with IT-BHU community, shares the grief about this sad news. The news was forwarded to us by Shushant Kumar (Ceramic 2005). His tribute to Rahul is posted below. Shushant can be contacted at: sush.singh@gmail.com)
____________________________
(Late Rahul Sharma)
Rahul Sharma, Ceramics Engineering batch of 2001-05, passed away in an unfortunate accident in his native place in Begusarai Bihar on 4th November 2008.
Born to Mr. and Mrs. R. P Sharma on 22 September 1981, Rahul did his schooling in Begusarai and Patna in Bihar. Rahul has left behind his parents and two elder brothers.
After IT-BHU, Rahul started his professional career with Calance in Gurgaon. He had shifted to q3 technologies in Gurgaon in the end of October 2008. Rahul was recognized as a hardworking and intelligent professional who used to add fun to the team. He was loved by everyone in his firm and had made some very good friends.
Besides his ‘down to earth’ and fun loving nature, Rahul was an ambitious youngster who had come a long way from his initial struggle days in a small town in Bihar. Unfortunately, only when he had started to spread his wings, he was taken away from us.
Rahul was a popular figure among his batch mates and especially the juniors – who loved to flock around him and get a few tips about living life to the fullest. That’s what he knew the best – living life to the full. He was the one who could light up our day – leave us rolling in laughter even when we were stressed with mundane things in college. Besides, he was a great human being, a nice person who loved to make friends.
He loved cricket and was a very good fast bowler. I remember his passion to swing the ball in the DG hostel ground – where he used to bowl for hours. That’s what he was – passionate about little things in life, prankster at times, a source of joy for all of us.
It’s a great loss for our batch of Ceramics 2005, to have lost one of our best. We pray for peace to him and his family members.

August 11, 2011 9:59 AMHi folks Every body, Just registered with www.itbhuglobal.org. I am thinking this can be a perfect place to reveal our thoughts and even views. By the way is this is the ideal place to post off topic?
When we discuss about secure sex we do not imply to destroy the enthusiasm and intimacy from your living. It actually signifies preventing and protecting you from the sexually transmitted ailments and cutting down the risk of acquiring the infection. Safe intercourse safeguards you versus unintended pregnancy and some prevalent STDs that can be transmitted during intercourse, for instance chlamydia and gonorrhoea. HIV infection is transmitted primarily via vaginal or anal intercourse without a condom. Safe and sound sex prevents you from sexually transmitted illnesses and HIV.
If you have had anal, oral or vaginal intercourse and if you have shared needles then you are at a chance of HIV infection. You can enormously decrease the possibility element of obtaining HIV infection as a result of sexual intercourse by realizing and practicing safer sex. HIV infection is spread through body fluids like as semen, blood, and vaginal/cervical secretions. Sexual routines that contain immediate get in touch with with semen, blood, or vaginal/cervical secretions are risky and can trigger HIV infection. When intercourse companion take precautions it lowers the opportunity of direct contact with those fluids and make intercourse safer.
Risk-free intercourse is crucial so as to guard the two the partners from the incurable sexually transmitted ailments. As a result it is essential for the partners to sit with each other and examine what birth handle strategies they would opt for. It is also crucial to explore if both of the partner is at a risk of an STDs. While it is a fragile and challenging problem to talk on yet it is necessary. Thus it is incredibly significant to appearance for the correct instant to talk on the topic. It is also critical to be truthful with just about every other and equally important to be frank with every other. If any of the partners is sexually contaminated then he or she ought to be daring adequate to inform it to the partner and consider essential precautions. Normally folks hesitate and do not tell their intercourse partners about it if they have an HIV or STDs which is actually a heinous crime.
Equally the couples need to sit with each other and make choices as to what precautions they are heading to consider. There are a selection of birth management alternatives. Among the various alternate options the use of condoms is a excellent selection as they are hugely helpful if used thoroughly. They give a lot more than ninety% protection versus sexually transmitted disorders. The condoms have other benefits these kinds of as they do not require a prescription and are effortlessly available at the drug stores and vending devices. There are other choice that too can be used like the capsule, IUDs, diaphragms, cervical caps, foam, a sponge, Norplant or Depo-Provera, all these are productive in avoiding pregnancy but the DO NOT protect against STDs.
Safer intercourse indicates getting remaining nutritious and staying sensible sufficient to safeguard and avoid from unplanned pregnancy and sexual diseases. It signifies taking advantage of sex to the fullest and at the exact same time exhibiting respect and care for every other. Risk-free sex is significant as health arrives over pleasure and we owe a obligation in the direction of are partners and the society.

Just about 3-4 many years ago, individuals would have intercourse with a number of partners not having worrying about deadly illnesses. They would not even use condoms. Nevertheless, soon after the spread of deadly diseases like AIDS, Hepatitis-B and identical infections, people have turn into additional worried about sexually transmitted ailments (STDs). In this report, we want to see how protected is what we phone harmless-sex?
It is pretty much not possible to stay away from intercourse and for that reason we have to have to discover about doable risks of it. We will know about risks and doable workarounds to lessen all those threats.
Quite a few persons think that the phrase 'safe-sex' is equivalent to employing a condom. Sad to say the understanding is not suitable and this sort of assumption might even enhance the distribute of sexually transmitted sicknesses. Folks might consider they have insured on their own against STDs with a condom and contain themselves with unsafe partners.
Condoms are not a hundred% trustworthy. They might break and bring about pregnancy or even disorder transfer. Nevertheless, employing condom is certainly advised and it will convey down the chance of infection significantly.
We do not want to deny that condoms are a really efficient safety. But STDs could be transferred not only from sexual organs, but also from other sections of the human body this kind of as mouth. As an instance instances have been noticed in which AIDS virus has been transferred by oral sex. AIDS virus exists in vaginal fluids and in situation of the injuries in mouth or skin, infection could possibly happen. In addition if there are accidents and blood in the mouth of the oral sex giver and no safety is utilized, the virus can be transferred once more.
If you are sexually lively or you guess you might have intercourse, be certain to have a condom with your self. Discover how to use it properly and do not overlook to use it. It will just take 30 seconds to put on a condom when staying away from it might have an affect on your overall daily life. To begin with rule and the most significant one, is to use a condom when acquiring intercourse. If you are a female, do not agree on obtaining sex not having a condom at any conditions. Owning sex with several people at a time applying a single condom is also pretty unsafe and unacceptable.
It is really critical to have medical related tests just before setting up a partnership specifically a extended term one particular which boosts the selection of sexual encounters and risk of illness transfer. Also just take in thoughts that some of the conditions want time to appear on assessments following the infection. For instance AIDS infection may well consider 3 months to be detected.
Men and women which have sexual partnership with a number of partners and all those partners could possibly have intercourse with other partners are in high threat. This is because a single unhealthy particular person may possibly transfer the sickness to the whole chain pretty fast. Those obtaining sex with a single partner have a pretty lower risk of being infected (until an individual of the partners has these sexual romance).
If you have youthful little ones in property, we recommend you to train them about above brought up details or at least deliver it to them. Educating young and unaware people today is maybe the most efficient system of decreasing the distribute of risky sexually transferred disorders. Young persons want to know the implications of owning dangerous relationships. Knowledge this significant position may possibly conserve their lives.
There are numerous men and women who you should not see the stage of owning harmless intercourse and they argue that it requires away the pleasure of producing like. They are deeply improper since unsafe intercourse, in particular with unstable partners can pose a great deal of threats to one's wellness. HIV and sexual transmitted diseases are a person of the most severe dangers, not to point out the fact that there are many gals who want to steer clear of pregnancy. Remaining balanced and generating sure you never conceive babies can only be done by adopting and putting in practice recommendations and strategies for secure sex. The first move is to get knowledgeable about what harmless intercourse signifies and about how to keep away from different threats. You need to have to do this regardless of the truth that you are a gentleman or a woman because protected intercourse is the duty of each partners. It is not at all adequate to know what you are supposed to do for safeguarding your self of HIV, STDs and an undesirable pregnancy you also have to set that details into apply.
In purchase to be ready to enjoy safer sex, you have to know the circumstances in which viruses and diseases are transmitted. A lot of believe that oral sex is safer and it can't infect an individual with HIV. Points are distinctive simply because specifically if you have sores or open in juries in your mouth, you are very probable to get HIV from an contaminated companion by training oral sex. Unprotected anal intercourse can also spread the virus and other infections.
Dental dam is a way of practicing safer sex for the reason that it keeps you away from all the infections and virus that can be transmitted as a result of oral stimulation or sex. It is built of latex and it can simply be located in drugstores. Condoms are also an individual of the safest protective techniques. The most effective ones are made of latex. When using condoms for safer intercourse, you have to spend wonderful attention to putting on them accurately since or else they may well not offer you any safety at all. It is never ever harmless to use the similar condom for practicing both vaginal and oral or anal sex. Lubricants are recommended to be made use of simply because they avoid condoms for breaking. Other contraceptive approaches, like the drugs or the diaphragm are certainly protecting the woman versus undesirable pregnancy, but they go away the partners subjected to equally HIV and other sexual transmitted conditions.
Intercourse is a little something that human beings can not live without at all, but it also includes the danger of contacting a Sexually Transmitted Disease (STDs) or an unplanned pregnancy. This is exactly where protected intercourse comes into the photograph. Safe and sound intercourse is the apply of sexual intercourse with complete defense in order to avoid STDs or pregnancy and appreciate the pleasure of sex as well. Harmless intercourse in no way dampens or deteriorates the enjoyment aspect, in simple fact it adds self-assurance in the couple so that they can get pleasure from the instant devoid of imagining about all people nasty stuffs.
Your body is at a possibility of contacting sexually transmitted health conditions whenever there is an exchange of bodily fluids like semen, vaginal secretion or blood. These ailments are really risky and may possibly be living threatening. AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) is 1 such incurable disorder that is transmitted sexually. Other STDs consist of hepatitis-B, herpes, chlamydia and gonorrhoea. Now the issue arises, how can you prevent contacting this kind of diseases?
Amid the answers, the most effective alternative is abstinence. Abstinence is the practice of not indulging in any sexual exercise with any one at all and as a result, the danger of trade of physique fluids by intercourse is nil. This process is a hundred% powerful but not at all functional.
The [url=http://www.bestescort4u.com/]escorts[/url] subsequent choice is to use a condom. A condom is a skinny latex sheath that handles the penis and stops the speak to of genital fluids by acting as a barrier amongst them. Male condoms are quite economical and easily offered in all drug merchants and even vending devices. There are also female condoms that cover the complete vaginal wall but these are highly-priced and not quickly available. The use of condoms cuts the danger of contacting a illness by 90% and and that of pregnancy by 95%.
One should be committed in a partnership and have sexual relation with only 1 partner. Make sure that your companion is cost-free from any STDs in advance of entering into a sexual relationship with him/her. Keep away from sexual flings with complete strangers and sex workers as these grow the risk of contacting this sort of ailments. Bear in mind, condoms are not 100% effective.
To prevent undesired pregnancies adult females can also use birth management drugs, IUDs, diaphragms etc. Bear in mind, if you want to have a pressure-no cost intercourse life, then safe intercourse is a will need to. In no way does it get away the pleasure from you, alternatively it gives you self confidence and peace of brain.
