New Delhi: confronted with false records and ghost “Ghost Faculty” in Higher Education at the Pharmacy, Indian Pharmacy, Statutory body under the Ministry of Health and Health Care, issued a 15 -day ultimatum for institutions to accept the biometric system AADHAAR permitted biometric participation (Aebas).
In strict pressure on the promotion of the mandate on biometric participation, the Council warned that any failure to meet the deadline can lead to download approval for institutions. Such a step could disrupt pharmacy education, because unapproved institutions would not be able to function.
Council statistics reflect the alarming situation. More than half of the approved Indian universities have not yet received a new system and only 13% of the faculty members are registered. The Council, which regulates the Indian pharmacy professions, practice and education, also revealed massive data pretense, with 45,355 duplicate or invalid teachers’ profiles on the government diggized portal, as MINT previously reported.
According to communication issued to pharmaceutical schools and seen Mint, the Council noted that the acceptance of the biometric system is behind expectations. The biometric system, which is designed to prevent manual interference in participation, is necessary to restore liability, he said.
The pharmacy Council warned that if the institution is acting quickly, weak supervision will continue to undermine teaching standards and disrupt the credibility of the pharmacy studio and the quality of pharmacists made in the ground.
From August 7, only about 2,735 institutions have been loaded into the new system, which is less than half of approximately 6,000 approved. It is even more critical in the registration of the faculty. Of the approximately 95,000 faculties approved by the government on the digid-pharmaceutated platform, only about 12,600 were registered at Aebas.
The Council approved about 5,669 institutions for the pharmacy diploma and 2,958 title institutions.
The biometric attendance system, which was introduced at the beginning of this year, was designed to create a more reliable and secure database of educators and pharmacy students by connecting unique IDs with the AADHAAR numbers.
“The lack of proper monitoring of the faculty’s attendance threatens the integrity of academic standards and can eventually depreciate the titles of thousands of pharmacy students across the country,” the official said.
