Dear Friends

All of you who were active for betterment of MANIT and contributed for
same have a very good news.

Mr. Arjun Singh Hon'ble Human Resource Minister has spoken publicly to
take action on
Mr. Buch's Report on attrocities at MANIT/MACT.

This is like winning the first battle and is just a start as many more
are ahead.

Please see the News Video uploaded on Youtube.

======
What i suggest for further action is as follow. This will also sum up
all the efforts.

* http://savemanit.blogspot.com/ << We all contribute by giving
feedbacks and comments here
and also post a copy of our comments/feedback on mact_alumni@yahoogroups.com

Let us wait and see how things progresses. If no changes happens we can
do as follows

* Mr Ramesh Chari/VS Thakur are working with RTI (Right To Information).
If they can file a RTI application
and get the details of Contracts allocation and Appointment of Relatives
in MANIT this will make the case very strong.
* There is active team in Delhi. For a case to be filed and taking
matter ahead in more professional way
we will need a Regd. Society or Forum for us so that contributors who
dont want to be public can work
anonymous. If Delhi team can register a society there in Delhi we can
have all Funds send to it for the case.
Registering a society will cost around 5000 Indian Rs and 7 members
(Secretery, Treasury etc).
* We can later move to court through the Regd Society in Delhi.
* I have services of a Lawyer (M. Com LLB) available at my office. He is
on my payroll and is available for Saving MANIT
so we will save Lawyer Fees. Only fees we will need to pay will be for
his travels and if he seeks consultancy
of senior lawyers. I will have him work 4 hrs a day for us in case we
plan to take the matter to Bhopal Court or High Court.
the Lawyer can work under instructions from Team in Delhi.
* Once we get court to instruct Govt for actions it will surely clean
system of some of the bad elements.

The Road Ahead
=============
* Reports through RTI
* A registered forum for saving MANIT now and in future.
* A case filed in court to instruct Govt to take strict action

(If you have another ideas feel free to reply and add in your ideas)

PLEASE NOTE
============
I myself am not available for the Noble cause as I cannot take any
responsibility bcoz of personal reasons.
I will try to make resoucres available and can work behind the scenes ;-)

===========

Once again congrats to all activists. Please do watch news.
