The spectre of mediocrity is haunting indian universities.Universities are supposed to be the breeding ground for talent and taechers are suppesed to provide role models for society.but the way acadamic world is functioning doesnt augur well for the future of our country.its no longer in a position to maintain its holier than thou approach as a mask of hypocrisy is falling very fast.In many universities selsctions are made vary often before the vacancies are announced.
Some acadamic goons have hijacked the sacrosanct academic space and havre been constantly promoting there won protege who in turn inherit the skulduggery to contribute in the formation of a clique . In the selection process and meritorious candidate with far more teaching experience ,reseacch work and publications are rejected in favour of mediocre charlatans who distinguish them selves by their loyalty to a particular academic gang.
Intellectual dishonesty is the order of tye day.there have been several cases of ghost writing where senoir professors publish works in there own name even when the substantial part of it has been done by one of the research scholars under there supervision doing M.Phill. or Ph.D.These research scholars abstain from raising their voice as they fear vindicative moves from their all powerfull supervisors.
There seem no respite from the fast growing epidemic of mediocrity in indian universities .Lecturers and professors whose dreams have been killed by this corrupt systems sholud come out openly against this sleepimg decadence and voice their concern.
