Uttar Pradesh Technical University, to which over 500 colleges are affiliated, is Asia’s biggest Technical University. Ironically, the same body seems to be one of the most corrupted and inefficient bodies with the lives of over 3,67,000 students being toyed with at the hands of an administration bent on making money. The students are enrolled into these colleges at great financial burden to their parents who take loans and sell property to pay the exorbitant fees unaware of the uncertain future to which they trust their children to.
As highlighted in recent media reports by “Aavaran Katha”, “Nishpaksh Pratidin”. “Samar Shikhar” and “Swatantra Bharat”, the majority of the new colleges affiliated to UPTU are fake and illegally maintained. The discrepancies have come to the fore now that the Central Bureau of Investigation has begun taking action against those responsible for this scam. UPTU has been running in the form of a syndicate in the hands of 5-6 corrupt minds which handled everything right from setting the fees, to granting approval by forged means and making deals with the approving bodies. In addition to the core group, a team of 20-25 people has been working constantly since the beginning to achieve these malicious ends.
