Bhartiya Shiksha Parishad Uttar Pradesh Its Constititionality & Validity

Generally every lover of education asks the question what is the constitutionally and reliability of Bhartiya Shiksha Parishad, U.P. or what sort of service or where admission can be obtained by students passing out from Parishad ?

The only clear answer to all such questions is that all Educational Boards / Universities are autonomous bodies. It is left to the discretion of University either to allow or refuse admission to a student from another University. In this way every State Government is at liberty whether to provide service to a person who has passed out from a particular University or Educational Board or not? Regarding the question of recognition, BSP is at present one of the leading educational institutions of the country and its courses are similar to the courses offered by various Universities and Educational Boards. The successful students of this Institution are serving in Government and Private Organisations and gaining admissions in various Universities and Education Boards, they are achieving success in the field of livelihood. This Parishad was established under the compulsory and constitutional provisions of Indian S.R. Act XXl-1860 since 1984.

Bhartiya Shiksha Parishad, U.P. is not in receipt of any grant-in-aid either from the Government or from the UGC, so far. Therefore UGC Act is not applicable to Parishad. Legal action against NCTE, AICTE, UGC and Government for making false propaganda against BSP, UP is already under consideration in the Hon'ble High Court of Judicature, U.P. The High Court has already granted a stay order on our Writ No. 744/91 under which Parishad has been permitted to carry educational activities. And under R.S. No. 336/98 the defendants have been ordered to not call, proclaim or treat the Plaintiffs as a Fake University.

Viewed at from the fulfillment of provisions of the articles 14, 19(1), 21, 29, 30, 45, 46 344 & 351 of the Indian Constitution 1950, BSP, U.P. is a matter of appreciation. The concept of Distance Education originated from Berlin ( Germany ) in 1856. Afterwards, Russia granted recognition to distance education in the world. In this manner the idea of Open Universities was conceived by the British Prime Minister Mr. Harold Wilson in the year 1863 to provide an opportunity to persons who were otherwise denied opportunities to further their education and make their life successful. In 1969 under the Royal Charter an Open University was established the success of which was more far reaching than the traditional Universities. Under the new Education Policy 1986, the Government of India laid particular stress on Open Universities and Distance Education. BSP, U.P. is getting necessary direction and full co-operation from educationists, professors and social workers of the country. It is their unanimous opinion that Parishad has given practical shape to the concept of British Prime Minister Harold Wilson by providing Open and Distance Education to the under privileged sections of students and encouraged democracy to take deeper education to the country. Under Human Rights Protection Act, 1993, autonomous bodies like the Parishad have been given special protection. For further details please see AIR 1993 SC 217B.
