A profitmaking scheme in the hands of a hoodwinker
by rajesh tiwari on Mar 12, 2009 01:27 PM  | Hide replies

Mr. Vimal, it seems that you know very well about the Sterlite Shareholders -lootscam of Mr. Anil Agarwal and you agree that it is ok to be a swindler and want people to agree to that , Because the system is such. It is very obvious that you are a paid employee of Sterlite / Vedanta and you have been deputed to answer / take care all such messages which bring out the truth in his intentions. I am sorry to say that this only affirms what I and many others are suspicious of. This practically shows how these sort of swindlers manage such big projects . How they multiply their money even while feigning philanthropy and flaunting their charitable nature. I repeat that now I am sure of this being a part of a $ 10 billion scheme and appeal to all Oriya bhais to noy blindly support this but use their own judgement and not listen to this VIMAL MOHPATRA who is a junior public relation officer in the abovementioned company and will do or say anything to anybody for his Rs. 12000/- monthly salary.

Mr. Rajesh, let’s discuss your points. I have heard from sources that Mr. Anil is an unethical businessman. He has set up some projects in Orissa during this past decade only. And I do not find anything wrong with them. Recently, our Supreme Court has cleared all objections to the projects. Those who are opposing them they are mostly politicians and you know what our politicians are. His projects provide jobs to local, generate revenue for government and help build wealth for the state rich in mineral and, at the same time, most backward. And regarding me, I am a T&P Officer in Seemanta Engineering College, Jharpokharia, Mayurbhanj, Orissa and working here since 22, Nov. 2007. This you can verify over sec_mbj@yahoo.co.in and ph. No. 0671-222113/4. I use to write and participate in debates on variety of issues whenever I found time to spare and found truth is being victimized. This you can verify just writing Bimal Prasad Mohapatra over rediff search. You are found disturb because of my enthusiastic writing in favour of VU. I wrote because I strongly believe there is no other resource greater than human resource. Swami Vivekananda also told the same to Jamshedji Tata, a businessman who initiated IISc while both were traveling to USA in 1893. USA is a great power today because between 1800 and 1900, it had invested a lot through private entrepreneurs in developing education. Study how our AIIMS is running contrary to BITS, Pillani. Note for space constraint. Sorry, if I hu

Anil Agarwal will NOT move his university anywhere even if offered free land. His nazar is on mining and this Orissa education and University is an eyewash. I guarantee you he will NOT move to Gujarat for this project.

Btw, a little googling shows Bimal has given a Cuttack number for his verification even though Mayurbhanj where he works is 400 miles away. And a yahoo id. to prove his office wowow - isnt it awesome.

I am extremely sorry friend. The STD code is wrong. This was not intentional. It was a typing mistake. The correct code is 06791, not 0671. The inconvenience may be regrated. The distance between Cuttack and my place of work is 200 KM, not as you say 400miles. Thank you.

Thank you for your guarantee that Mr. Anil will not move his varsity project to Gujurat. Regarding mining: If it is not today by Mr. Anil, tomorrow it will be by somebody else. Mine will certainly be mined because if it will not be mined then from where human beings will get aluminum, iron, energy, etc. to make your and my computers which are run by energy facilitating the communication between you and me. Human being is a selfish creature of Almighty, is not it? Tata runs its iron mill at Tatanagar in Jharkhand and use iron ore from Orissa. And there are many such examples. But in Mr. Anil's case differences are: He mines and add value to it in his factory in Orissa And by this the state exchequer get more revenue, local gets job, etc. Besides if he wants to spend some profit by way of philanthropy why we should oppose? We all are educated by our parents. But there many who are deprived up this privilege. Mr. Anil has started providing facilities to them. Let us welcome this.

Welcome
Think before you rejoice
by Welcome on Mar 12, 2009 02:50 AM  | Hide replies

It made me happy to see that someone is investing in education sector. Well, this investment should generate some smart and responsible citizens. But, after seeing the investment amount I was little uncomfortable. After all, this investor is expecting returns on his investment. The first question that comes in my mind is why should education cost so much? Is knowledge transferring such a complicated process? If the education sector becomes a business then the people in the lower spectrum of the economic pyramid will never have access to it. In the US lot of people avoid going to higher studies just because they can't afford it? Is that what we want in our society? Health and Education are the two sectors that should never be controlled by private sectors that run for profit. These are the two sectors that will never face a demand shortage. If we know this basic truth then we will never privatize these sectors.

Friends, we know how our knowledge temples under government management are being run since independence. During the first four decades of independence, government was in full control of this sector. What way this sector has grown? What were went wrong for that this was allowed to private sector? Except few Indian Institutes with a few thousand seats, all others were just drain to government exchequers. And Indian Institutes were for children of elite comprising bureaucrats, politicians, etc. and providing low-priced intelligent man powers to multinational firms in West. Due to rapid technical development and globalization of economy, the higher education has become very costly which our government alone can not afford. Those who are interested and meritorious can avail the bank loan available easily these days. As per one statistic published in a national daily a couple of months back, in Western Developed countries more than 80% students do their higher study availing bank loan whereas this is just 3% in India. Ours is democratic welfare state and I do agree with you that Education and Health should be under the domain of government. But, in view of past experience, it looks it will not serve the purpose. When we have distinguished surgeons at AIIMS, our PM is operated open by a team of surgeons from private health centre. What does it inspire? Ours elites children go to public schools run by International Consortiums? So, let’s debate over the issue you raise.

Why not in Orissa? What is the wrong with Orissa? In Orissa, Mr. Anil has invested a lot. He needs trained and resourceful persons for his factory. He can get them from his own university tailor made. Thank you.

university is never measured by the amount invested.
by hokuram on Mar 08, 2009 03:50 PM  | Hide replies

It will be measured by the output of research and contributions to the society. Academics can not always be poached by lure of money. That would depend on name, research and teaching environment and lot more. Any way lets hope for the best.

You are very right, Sir. I hope promoter will look into this aspects. Besides, I can say this with conviction because people with high academic repute like Prof. (Dr.) Bhanu Pratap Mehta, ex-Convener of National Knowledge Commission, Mr. Sam Pitroda, Prof. C. K.Prahalad, Mr. Anand Shah, etc.are there in the team. Thank you for this suggestion from a well-wisher of Orissa and quality education. Keep it up.

Sir ! You should take up this Project on war footing, though you may face some opposition here & there.Besides this your whole education system in this University should be Industry oriented & not an academic process. The curicullum should meet the need of the hour & updated regularly, so that the cands passing out from this Univ should face the challenges of the Industry easily.Also, East India really needs a boost like this, as their is a vast potential talent available there.
God Bless You !

Thank you, Sir. These are very nice advises. We must keep on writing like this to encourage the promoter of this project as well as many others of similar nature. It does not cost anything but return is very high. Once again, thank you sir from a well-wisher of quality education.

VU has to build the campus on the land it has already aquired(3900 acres)and shud not waste time scouting for additional land.OR move to other states like Gujrat were land aquistions should not be a problem to VU.
