NCTE Probes Irregularities at Four B.Ed Colleges in MP
The NCTE has set up a special team to check four B.Ed colleges in Madhya Pradesh.
They are looking into reports that these colleges might not be following the rules.
The team includes important people from the education department.
They will visit the colleges, take pictures and videos, and check if everything is as it should be.
The team has to finish their report quickly, in just five working days.
If the colleges are found to be breaking the rules, they might face serious punishment.
NCTE formed a five-member committee to investigate irregularities at four B.Ed colleges in Madhya Pradesh.
The committee is headed by former Vice-Chancellor H.C.S. Rathore and includes members from UGC and the Ministry of Education.
The probe was initiated following media reports of irregularities at three colleges, with a fourth added after preliminary verification.
The committee is tasked with on-site verification, geotagged documentation, and assessing compliance with NCTE regulations.
The committee has five working days to submit a comprehensive report, after which strict action may be taken against defaulting institutions.
