TNIC seeks explanation from the varsity For more than a year, a student who completed M.A (Economics) from the Madurai Kamaraj University was not issued a course completion certificate and a provisional certificate by the varsity authorities despite finishing all formalities.
After repeated attempts to get the certificates failed, the student, Pawan Kumar, from Kaithal district in Haryana, filed a petition under the Right to Information Act, 2005, seeking copies of the course completion certificate and the provisional certificate. Not satisfied with the replies of the Public Information Officer (PIO)/Assistant Registrar and the First Appellate Authority, the petitioner filed an appeal to the Tamil Nadu Information Commission (TNIC).
‘Issue was already flagged in 2017 and matter should have been dealt with’ Students who passed out of the University of Madras remain disqualified for the post of Assistant Superintendent for Vigilance Institutions in the Department of Social Defence, for which recruitment is done by the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission (TNPSC), even two decades after the upgradation of the M.A. (Criminology) course to M.A. (Criminology & Criminal Justice Administration) and then to M.Sc. (Criminology & Criminal Justice Science), as the University has not received the “equivalence of qualification” status from the competent authorities.
While TNPSC continues to not treat the upgraded courses as equivalent to M.A. (Criminology) and reject applicants from the University of Madras and other universities with upgraded courses, candidates from institutions like the University of Delhi, that still offer the M.A (Criminology) course, have been offered jobs in the Tamil Nadu State services.

TNIC directs State government to digitise all revenue records since 1864
In a significant order, the Tamil Nadu Information Commission (TNIC) has directed the State authorities to computerise all revenue records since 1864 and make them accessible to the public in digital format through e-Seva centres.
The judgment stems from a petition filed by N.P. Venkateswarlu, of Raichur in Karnataka, who alleged that a property owned by his grandfather in Nedumaram village near Tiruttani in Tiruvallur district was illegally transferred in the names of some other persons, and sought copies of the documents that facilitated the patta transfer.
