No Mobiles Allowed To Students





Cellphones are all the rage on most college campuses because the cell phone technology has now gone well beyond placing a simple call. Tamil Nadu has become the first state in India to ban mobile phones in colleges. The DCE issued a notification stating that all the arts, science, commerce and other colleges under their purview will ban mobile phones inside the campus.
There are mainly three reasons for imposing the ban: some students take inappropriate pictures of women faculty and female classmates; misuse of mobile phones in examination and disruption.
“Students film women faculty members in awkward positions and share videos on social media. In co-educational institutions, women students are filmed in the company of their male friends and the videos are later misused.
“But considering the need to have connectivity, we have allowed the use of phones in the cafeteria and outside the campus, and strictly not inside the classroom,” says Dr Poongodi of Kovai Govt Arts.



Dr Sasikala Sundar, an Engineering professor from PSG Tech says: ” The situation where students rely only on books for knowledge is totally changed. Besides that the college management too provides free WiFi facilities for the students. Both students and staff will definitely need mobile phones for browsing information, especially in the field of Engineering where technology is unavoidable. The misuse of mobile phones can only be avoided by students through their self control.”
With the advancement in technology, machines have taken over the place of man. Books are replaced by gadgets, teachers are replaced by robots or virtual teaching apps. It is in a way good to adapt to the technological progress in this growing world. But with this one must not lose his/her inborn humane quality.
The face to face communication is lost among the people especially the youngsters. Scientific research states that the Generation Y (those born after 1980s) epitomize the term ‘Digital Natives’ growing amidst the fast evolving technology.
“Students nowadays are immersed completely in social media. Hundreds of selfies a day and not even a little chit chat with a person sitting next to them. Mobiles do have their pros and cons.

In what could be seen as a new trend emerging in the apex court while dealing with economic offenders, the bench allowed bail to an accused in the bitcoin scam on Saturday, in lieu of hefty amounts of cash as a security deposit — Rs 15 lakh, to be precise. The court was hearing the bail petition of Akash Kantilal Sancheti, accused of duping several persons of Rs 42 lakh. The first complaint against him was lodged by a Pune entrepreneur, who claimed she had invested Rs 13 lakh in Sancheti's business since August 2017. He was arrested in January 2018. On Friday, his bail petition came up for hearing before a bench comprising Justices RF Nariman and V Ramasubramanian.

The bench directed Sancheti to deposit Rs 13 lakh with the registry of the apex court within six months. In addition, it told him to furnish a bail bond of R...
