iit bombay jee advanced: Student loses IIT Bombay seat due to ‘wrong’ click, moves SC
IIT
Bombay after he “inadvertently” clicked on a “wrong” link which was meant to withdraw from the process.
The student, Siddhant Batra who hails from Agra, has now approached the supreme court seeking a direction to the institution to admit him after the
IIT said it cannot intervene at this stage as all the seats for the course were full and admission rules had to be followed.
It said Batra could apply again next year for JEE (Advanced).
The
Bombay High Court had initially directed the
IIT to consider Batra’s petition, after he approached it earlier this month, as representation and pass appropriate orders.
Batra, who had secured All India Rank (AIR) of 270 in JEE Advanced exams and secured admission, claimed in his plea that he had clicked the wrong link which was meant to withdraw his seat. Batra intended to freeze the seat, the plea said.
On November 23, a division bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice G S Kulkarni dismissed Batra’s petition noting that
IIT had considered his representation and passed its order.
In his petition to the supreme court, Batra has sought a direction to the
IIT to consider his case on humanitarian grounds, and requested creation of an additional seat to undo his loss.
Batra, who lives with his grandparents following death of his parents, in the plea said he had worked hard against all odds to crack
IIT JEE exams.
The petition, filed through advocate Pralhad Paranjpe, said Batra had lost his father when he was a child and was brought up by his mother who passed away in 2018.
As per his plea, Batra, while filling out the admission process online, came upon a page with ‘freeze’ option, which he thought meant confirming the seat and the completion of his admission process.
“On October 31, 2020 when Batra was surfing the
IIT portal to check for further updates, he came upon a link which carried a declaration that read ‘I would like to withdraw from the seat allocation process of JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority’,” the petition said.
As per the plea, Batra inadvertently clicked on this link and stated ‘
IIT
Bombay, Electrical Engineering’ as reasons for withdrawal. It added that Batra never intended to withdraw his admission.
In November 2020, when the final list of students was uploaded on the
IIT portal, Batra’s name was not included.
The
IIT, in its order, however, said the withdrawal option was a “conscious” two-step process.
It said candidates who want to withdraw before the final round can do so and the ‘seat acceptance fee’ gets refunded, adding that once a candidate has withdrawn then his or her seat stands cancelled.

The first lesson in an introductory chemistry course typically deals with how to interpret the periodic table of elements, but its complexity can be overwhelming to students with little or no previous exposure.
Researchers reporting in ACS’ Journal of Chemical Education introduce an innovative way to make learning about the elements much more approachable by using ‘pseudo’ periodic tables filled with superheroes, foods and apps.
One of the fundamental topics taught in first-year undergraduate chemistry courses is the organization and layout of the periodic table of elements. However, many university students consider it a daunting and difficult subject to master, prompting professors to seek new ways to engage their students and make its concepts more accessible.
Previous educational studies presented the table in different formats, such as crossword puzzles and cartograms, to address multiple types of learning styles. Gregory Watson and colleagues reasoned that introducing the periodic table with familiar items could also help.
And rather than teaching the full details right away, the researchers wanted to focus on some of its key characteristics first, using a contemporary, engaging and multi-level strategy.
The team presented first-year chemistry students with a series of made-up, or pseudo, periodic tables with objects that they had likely encountered before, including fruits and nuts, superheroes, iPad apps and meats.
The pseudo periodic versions replaced elements with single items to demonstrate one or more concepts needed to understand the trends and layout of the real chemical one. For example, a superhero table featured characters, such as Superman, Wonder Woman and the Green Lantern, prompting in-class discussions on how to group the icons by ability, strength, gender and other properties — just as the elements are arranged in the real periodic table based on their similarities.
Over 75 percent of students taught with this strategy identified it as somewhat, very or extremely useful. An increase in correct answers relating to the subject on midterm exams suggested that these periodic tables improved students’ comprehension.The researchers say that familiar items reduce stress and help students successfully build their base of chemistry knowledge.
Candidates, who had appeared for the examination process, can now check their result on the official website – http://rajswasthya.nic.in/.
The exam was conducted for the recruitment on 7810 posts.
Rajasthan Health Department had issued a notice (S. No. 1719) dated August 31, 2020 for Community Health Officer recruitment for 6310 vacancies. Later there was an additional increase of 1500 posts in the vacancies, which increased the total to 7810.
