Shiksha Top Questions

Hello,
Hindustani Prachar Sabha in Mumbai was apparently formed by Mahatma Gandhi at about the time of Independence of India. It's an NGO with an aim of promoting what it considers as Hindustani. It dishes out many courses about Hindustani in Urdu, Braille and in general promoting its objective. It makes no claim that its courses are recognised by UGC. It's just that students must know that it's a one year programme 'Hindi Vidwan' and is equivalent to BA.
The fact of the case is, any programme of education needs to be of 3-years duration minimum and after 12th, which they can claim to be a graduation as understood by UGC. Once this is understood, it then follows that 'Hindi Vidwan' by HPS is not a graduate degree as understood by UGC and hence one can not seek admission for either Masters or B.Ed based solely on this.

Hi,
B.Ed course was last altered in 2014. After that Undergraduate and Post Graduate courses have not really seen any big change which is not a good thing. Changing or modification is necessary for better development of the world. As the competition level goes higher so changing the course is a quite better decision. This promises that our future teachers learn the better way of teaching, how to express better in front of students and how to motivate them. If they are trained according to the new trends then they would give right education to the students which would really be helpful.

Well, there is no age limit as such fixed as of now, as the earlier upper age bar was lifted by the Supreme Court on a PIL filed by 2 aspirants.
However, there is an upper age bar on judicial services exam, which differs from state to state for instance, in UP the upper age limit is 35 years while in Haryana it is 40 years.
And, for Delhi also it may be fixed to 32 years most probably.
So, you do not have any age limit to do LLb, but if you aim at judiciary, then you have to make sure to complete the degree within the age limits of judicial services exams of a respective state you look for.
However, you may choose to appear for Higher Judicial Services, where the age bar is available upto 45 years and, thus you get a chance to become a judge after satisfying other eligibilities.
Thus, in a nutshell, age does not really is a bar to become a judge provided you plan it accordingly, as after a maximum age you would be ineligible for any of the 2 exams.

Well this a mistaken idea that majority of law colleges are located in U.P. U.P, being a huge state, it has an advantage of having a number of institutes owing to available land. As there are many states which has a number of law schools for example Gujarat apart from GNLU, has Siddhartha Law college, Auro University Of Law, Institute of Law, Nirma University, United Global World School Of Law, RN Patel school of Law and many more. Thus, it is not the case that UP has majority of law schools as every state has a number of Law schools and universities.
U.P has RMLNLU, Amity University, BHU amongst top and not much Law schools are there comparing with Gujarat. For instance, similar number is there. Also, Delhi has a number of law schools, and so does Maharashtra and Karnataka have.
So, it can't have generalized and concluded that U.P has the majority of law schools, but it does have a good number of law institutes owing to available cheap land and political interference as well.

Indraprastha University however is a good university in Delhi NCR and some of its colleges are quite good for LLB.
Amity (IP) is one amongst the most preferred by students after NLUs, due to its proximity in terms of Delhi region and you get a lot of exposure. The infrastructure is good and you have a very well developing Moot Court Culture there, which is very much required for a budding lawyer. Also, the faculty and library is good and above all, the Delhi region in itself gives a lot of opportunities for growth of students.
VIPS is another such college that has seen preference by students and the students do boast of the infrastructure and the academics.
However, placements are not as impressive as in Amity IP.
Also, university law center of Guru Gobind Singh, IP University is also a preference by students lately owing to the professional attitude, and also the quality of faculty and the trust in University.
Overall these three colleges are much preferred by students when it comes to IP University.
