100% Cutoff in Delhi University Irrational, Says Kapil Sibal

Get here latest news related to education as 100% Cutoff in Delhi University is Irrational, Says Kapil Sibal. As the DU first cut-off 2011 list for BCom (H) at the Shri Ram College of Commerce has been published on June 14, 2011 (Tuesday), the SRCC has got 100% for the non-commerce students, which has been called ridiculous by Union human resources development minister Kapil Sibal, who has called it irrational.

According to sources, Sibal called this adverse and said he was saddened as it came at a time when the government was trying to simplify and make the process of admissions easy. Sibal said such restrictive cutoffs demoralise students and their parents and should be avoided by the university.

Kapil Sibal questioned the wisdom of this decision as it denied admission to students who scored even as high as 99 per cent. Criticising the SRCC move, Sibal questioned why a student who scores 99 per cent in science is not good enough to study commerce.

Responding to Kapil Sibal’s appeal, Delhi University vice-chancellor said the cutoff will come down in subsequent lists. However, the principal of SRCC PC Jain has justified the 100% cutoff for non-commerce students and said the college is following the established practice.
