IIT Kanpur has decided to conduct JEE type entrance exam for IIT Kanpur separately.

IIT Kanpur has decided to conduct JEE type entrance exam for IIT Kanpur separately.
in 2012

While this should send a strong message against top-down approach, there are some points as per Ordinance 3.2 itself

(refer http://www.iitk.ac.in/infocell/iitk/newhtml/ordinances_03.pdf for point 1 below) & IIT Act

(refer http://www.iitm.ac.in/downloads/RTI/Act.pdf for points

2, 3, 4 & 5 below)

worth considering,

IIT Kanpur Senate resolution 1.b dated June 8, 2012 says, “In view of the Senate resolution adopted in its 2011-12/9th meeting held on April 10, 2012, invoking Ordinance

3.2 the Senate resolves that IIT Kanpur will conduct the entrance examination for admissions to its undergraduate programmes in 2013”. However, as per Ordinance 3.2,

“The Admission of Indian Nationals to the B. Tech., B. Tech.-M. Tech.

(Dual Degree)and M.Sc. (Integrated) Programmes shall be made once a year on the basis of the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) conducted jointly by all the IITs”.

If Ordinance 3.2 says that JEE is to be conducted jointly by all IITs, it is not clear how can the Senate of a particular IIT decide to conduct entrance examination for its own institute?


As per 13.1, the board has the power to review the acts of the Senate.
As per 13.2.e, the board of the institute can cancel or modify ordinances. (Note: As per 11.e, the board will have two professors of the Institute, to be nominated by the Senate besides other people as mentioned in 11.a, 11.b, 11.c & 11.d.)


As per 9.3, the President of India may take such action and issue such directions as he* considers necessary in respect of any of the matters dealt with in the report (refer 9.2) and the Institute shall be bound to comply with such directions. As per 33.2.e, Council can, “Advise” the President of India in respect of any function to be performed by him* under this Act.


As per 33.2.a & 33.2.b, the Council itself has some powers especially with regards to laying down policy in the current context.
