Dr. N.D Mittal speaks out

I am Dr.N.D.Mittal, Professor Applied Mechanics Department MANIT Bhopal as well as 1979 alumnai. My views are as follows:

Whatever has been published in news papers and contents of enquiry done by Mr.M.N.Buch are one hundred percent correct and even many more. I have not seen this much corruption in my last 33 years at MANIT Bhopal. Dr.Ashutosh Sharma and Mr.Sanjeev Saxena has almost purchased the institute in their hands. Students are not getting the quality teaching and faculty those are honest and hard worker are not able to dishcharge their duties. Faculty members are tortured and terrorised by these peoples or they also become a part of them. Hopefully many almunai might be knowing me very well during their teaching days but I am not able to deliber the lectures properly, the students who take my help are tortured from the top because I resist the administration at every corner for their mistakes and corruption. There are many more faculty members who wants to enhance the image of MANIT apart from me but administration does not permit us do not give any chance to us.
Dr.Lavit Rawtani Assistant Professor in CSE Deptt caught a corrupted faculty member during M.Tech examination for cheating and he was suspended for last 9 months. Now everyone can imagine the state of MANIT.

It is quite disheartening that things have gone to a state that one of the most respected profs of our time speaks out and is coming out with views in this regard.
Dr. Mittal has always been revered in the highest pedigree by all of us and has been one of the most decent faculty the college has ever seen and never known to get involved in petty matters.
A comment like the above from him means that things are really serious and this is a matter of grave concern.
Not sure how this can be solved but we can at least appreciate the gravity of the problem and bring it to the outer world.

Praise to Dr. N D Mittal, who took a bold step to speak out about this menace.

This Sanjeev Saxena guy was a parasite when we were around, and sounds like he still is. Never had my respect, never will.

He had a group of students aligned towards him during our time as well. It's easy for students to be lured into all the wrong things for petty gains. For most students coming from average families, all that free booze and godfatherly protection may seem more than one could ask for. And at that age, most fail to judge things well.
Fall in Sanjeev Saxena's trap, and he could definitely make you his personal chauffeur. Students need to think of their long term plans, instead of this short lived joy that he can offer in return for doing all sorts of unlawful acts.
Count my support in any way I can remotely.

Dear All..A senior professor like Dr.N.D.Mittal has every right to feel sad at the turn of events.However lets not forget that this goon Sanjeev Saxena was not allowed to enter the institute premises when Prof.J.P.Dwivedi and subsequently Prof.P.Krishnamachar were the director of the institute.
He could not dare to enter the campus for fear of police action against him as these two gentlemen were very strict.He got entry in the campus only when an ex-director and a very corrupt person Dr.Sharma was the director of the institute.Dr.Sharma was related to Mr.Shankar Dayal Sharma,former president of the country.He signed the appointment letters of Mrs.Aruna Saxena(the wife of Sanjeev Saxena)and Mrs.Anupama sharma(the daughter of Dr.H.K.Khurasia,a professor in Mechanical Engg Deptt.)on his last day in the office.The moment Aruna saxena joined the institute this goonda sanjeev saxena got an official entry in the campus.So Dr.Sharma was a big and real culprit.Later on this goonda started looking for people who were hungry for money or power and started galvanising them to increase his strength.Guys like ashutosh sharma,sps rajput,r.k.baghel and soni of applied mechanics are part of this dirty group and work day in & day out for sanjeev saxena.They make a lot of money through the corrupt practices and pass it on to sanjeev saxena.Same is the case with junaid rahim,satish pal rajput,alok singh ,pushyamitra mishra,rishi singh(this chap gave 9 lacs to be selected as a faculty throgh waiting list and is now recovering his money through electrical maintainence as he has been made the incharge for electrical maintainence).All these guys were selected in 2005.They are highly incompetent and corrupt to the core.Why Prof.Mittal is silent on these guys?Is it lack of courage?He should talk about them openly if he wants the institute to recover from this sad state of affairs.He will get full support from so many people,except corrupt and self-serving people like gajendra dixit,vk khare,
h.k.khaira,m.k.gupta,sapre,sushil shrivastava,arvind mittal,pardasani,etc.These people are either very corrupt or selfish to the core or both.They should also be shown the door otherwise one sanjeev saxena will go and another sanjeev saxena will take over by extending favours to such people.

I am shocked to read about such kind of situation of MANIT.Things are really bad.If Senior and among most respected Prof. Dr. Mittal is writing such kind of comments any one can imagine how BAD the situation is.Things were going well when Chende sir was there College was really improving the reputation.
Its really true that Sanjeev Saxena is a parasite for the MANIT We have to get some way to save the institute only long discussions in the group will not going to work.

Junaid Rahim, Dammn I know him.. so thats what he is doing now. Well he was talented but wasted because fo saxenas feloow in our days there. Well employ all pumpapurians including the dhobi latch those doors and beat these folks one by one. couple of injuries and things would be in track.. the sad part is it doesn;t work this way.. Maximum damage you can do to this is these people will have to shell out additional money to politicians and police or whatever to retain position and things will be back in circles..

Guys stop asking everybody else to do this. One thing for no girl relative of mine are gonna be in this collage the anonymous faulty said something big...

Whatever is going on is really bad. i passed out last year and this would be right to say that whatever happened when our batch was there. When we joined the college Dr.P.K.Chande was new director at that time. Everything was going well. Ragging, corruption every-thing was in control and even after being form a ragging prone state. i did not face any physical ragging. Even education standard improved those days because Mr. Chande tried to make it open for everyone. Then something happened in center and Mr. Chande was gone. The news came on all the channels and we were really sad. Then started what you can the era what can be called as worst ers for college.
Then Dr. Syan became the acting director. To quote one event he came to hosel no 4 when i was in second year and he asked is this the hostel of third year. What can you expect from such a person who don't know where his students live. Mr. Chande came to meet us almost everyday when we were in first year.
Then i heard the the name our biggest name a black spot on our college Mr. Sanjeev Saxena. I sware i never heard of this person before that. He got all the contracts. People praise him like anything. Mr. Rajpoot is a big fan of Mr. Saxena. then everything started to go haywire. We had a gneral ragging in second year which did not happened in first year. You should have jugad to get things done after that.
By the time i was in third year. I think the new recruit was done in this year. They recruited people like Junaid Raheem, Bro of rajpoot and so many of siblings and relatives of previous faculty. If you want to know anything about these guys just be at mata mandir at evening and they will be standing with some of your so called "Don" friends. i remember one day i was there and Mr. sanjeev Saxena came there all people rushed to him. Sanju boss!!!........some of then fell to his feet.really shameful. Felt like he is GOD or what.
On those days G.T. was very often. Sometimes when you are in the class profs. is not coming to the class or sometimes this new recruits. What will they teach you if they do not know anything. I can teach far better than they teach so the interest in studies was gone. Papers for major exams was available for them. I remember mechanical and I.T. people getting papers on the eve of exams.
Then started out Campus Placement. Against our all expectations Mr. M.K> Gupta was demoted and new TPO was Aruna Saxena. This woman does not have any manners at all. How can she talk to any corporate person at all. Once i remeber she called to HP and said -"we use your printers" that is how she knows the companies. Once my friend got no of Cisco by his friend and asked it call this company. that woman said i don't know the company and did not call it. TCS was the first company. People say that they took bribe also for that. I don't know how much is truth in that.Then again all the bunch of mass recruiters and at the end they posted the flag this year campus was great. The same companies recruited from LNCT(a private college of bhopal) and in same amount. Now i am in corporate world and i know that companies wish to go but all you need to di is call them at least. We deserve far better campus than we got.

Then we were in Final year. So these we had habit of all the things. Fees shot up by 8k Rs. p.a. but this could be justified. By that time we had got our new frak director " Dr. K.S. Pandey" want to know his full name just visit his office. You will hear so many stories about him. This guy is complete insane and a puppet in the hands of saxena. He will always emphasize on dress code etc. never on studies. In seventh sem i remember i attended only one class of one subject and very few of others.
then came the eight semester and the monster installed by college MIS. they spend a lot of money on that just to make sure that you attend all the classes. Anyway we attende all the classes in last sen. Then came the convocation. It was said to done after the sem exams. but nevertheless as usual it was postponed.
There end my college days.
Infact it is good to see that these news came to papers.

Sambit Chatterji, Director Recruitment. ING said...

Well this is to the one who is trying to be coward and have written in as if on yahoo chat...

The jobs are not because Mr Suxena the market is on the fling and its going to be down because of US sub prime and other stuff in next few year.. So this will get naturalized. Looking at demand every NIT will get huge response just because when you get there you have proven the stuff.. it does not matter to most of the companies what you learn there but the attitude towards your work...

Well do fare comparison...
look at some of the NITs doing better than our trichy and surathkal to tell you the truth nothing different there is just the reputation that bring s better student (yes you heard right) there.

Goods companies!!! VJIT Mumbai gets far better companies than your...with better perk too...And they deny going out for next level of education...

Don't think narrow.. All mactian will definitely get job (if you are not stupid)...

The issue here is If you donlt stop it now this will get down to students quota and increased fees and whatever possible...You might be sucking somebody’s D**K over bullshit... You got 2 jobs you are good and you are lucky.....

Being in industry anfdin field of recruitment for so many years I will tell you nothing in Mact has attracted companies there. Its just your PET score at which you go there and the market being demanding....No NIT guy stays jobless once out without job as well it just because you go there on talent...(Exempt few. Lets not get into to other controversy now.

If u are manit alumni..and wanna fight against corruption then pls do that but dont u think u are hurting placement prospects of ur juniors, dont u think its affecting students,if u wanna do something ,file a public interest litigation. Why are u using Net for defaming manit which is ultimately going to affect students career. and why are u allowing malicious comments on your blog,it looks like some people have problem with few individuals and ur blog is acting as vent for their frustrations. atleast dont allow foul comments

The Ashutosh Sharma+sanjeev saxena nexus is trying to project and beleive that they are trying hard to acheive laurels for MANIT and some ruffled professors are trying to pull them back. Well, they can play this game, but the truth will prevail in the end. So, do worry about that end, because when you victimize innocent people, drastically try to snub talent, punish talented teachers,and when you play dirty politics with students, the God Himself comes down to punish.

people
i am saxena's classmate. I know that person and also Ashutosh Sharma.

One interesting thing, everybody has written comments anonymously.

Mr Mittal, if I remember correctly was the Proctor in MACT, and someone should ask him what did he do in his times. These people were hand in glove in the politicians at that time. Just because his days are over and some one has taken over his role, he is crying.

On the other hand ,I regret my days from MACT, it was never a teaching institution and is still not a teaching institute . It may be ranked high but in my opinion, its a pity to see the institute.
On the other hand look at Saxena's college. It's private funded and it has a budget of not more than 5% of MACT budget. It's doing better relatively.
So the problem is not saxena, Saxena is just an person who is visible. The problem is the faculty & decision maker in MACT. They have the power and choose not to exercise.

SO please dont blame saxena & ashutosh, blame yourself and stop whining
