STATEMENT
The Maharashtra State Board of Technical Education Act, 1997 (Mah.
XXXVIII of 1997), provides for establishment of a State Board to regulate
the matters pertaining to Diploma Level Technical Education. Sections 26,
27 and 35 of the said Act prescribes the time limit for making application for
permission to open new institution, new course, additional faculties, new
subjects, additional divisions, closure of institution and forward the
application to Government after scrutiny. Sub-section (3) of said section 26
provides that, the management seeking permission to open a new institution
shall apply in the prescribed form to the Board before the last day of October
of the year preceding year from which the permission is sought. Sub-section
(4) of said section 26 provides that, all such applications received within the
aforesaid prescribed time limit, shall be scrutinized by the Board and be
forwarded to the Government on or before the last day of December of the
year. Sub-section (5) of section 27 provides the procedure for permission for
new courses, additional faculties, new subjects and additional divisions. Sub-
section (2) of section 35 provides that, the management desirous of closing
down the institution shall apply to the Board on or before the last day of the
April of the preceding year. However, due to outbreak of the Covid-19
pandemic, it could not be possible to follow the time limit prescribed in the
said Act.
2.
The whole of India is facing the COVID-19 pandemic which has
adversely affected the educational and socio-economic field to a large extent.
The pandemic has also created employment related problems for the young
generation. Keeping in view of such grave situation and to boost the
educational and employment opportunities for young people by providing
them skills sets in upcoming areas as proposed from time to time by the
Government of India and Government of Maharashtra, it is considered
expedient to specify the new time schedule for making application for
permission to open new institution, new course, additional faculties, new
subjects, additional divisions, closuer of institution and forward the
application to Government after scrutiny, for the academic year 2021-22. For
the purpose, it is considered expedient to amend the sections 26 and 35 of
the Maharashtra State Board of Technical Education Act, 1997, suitably.
