The Medical Council of India has rejected the approval for Christian Medical College, Dichpalli, Nizamabad, and Rangaraya Medical College, Kakinada. With this, students will lose about 150 MBBS seats in the new academic year 2012-13. While Christian Medical College had sent proposals for 100 MBBS seats, the Rangaraya College had proposed to increase its quota from 100 to 150 seats. Both the proposals were rejected by the MCI.

CMC has been trying to secure MCI approval since 2007 in vain. The MCI teams inspecting the college have expressed dissatisfaction over the existing infrastructure and faculty and refused to give approval.However, both colleges are optimistic about securing the approval, as the MCI has asked them to attend a personal hearing before its Board of Governors (BoG) on June 1.

The colleges are expected to give an undertaking on meeting the MCI norms within the stipulated time-frame and request for “conditional approval“.At present, there is an acute shortage of MBBS seats in the state.Only 4,500 MBBS seats are available in 14 government and 23 private medical colleges in the state, while over 70,000 students qualify in the Eamcet medical entrance tests every year and vie for MBBS seats.

Putting the 4.5% minority sub-quota on hold till legal challenges are resolved, the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) on Thursday sought to allay students' apprehensions and advised them to expand their choice of courses.

The statement came on the back of the Andhra Pradesh High Court judgment scrapping the sub-quota, putting in quandary the over 300 IIT aspirants who had been shortlisted under the provision. The urgency in the case is because counseling for students is already underway.

IIT-JEE organizing chairman Prof G B Reddy said, "The students should expand their choices to take care of both eventualities (if the HC decision is upheld or stayed by the Supreme Court).'' While law minister Salman Khurshid has categorically said that the government would approach the SC to challenge the HC order, it remains to be seen whether it will be able to get a stay. In the wake of the court order, IITs have decided to abide by the ruling, "ignoring" the quota provision till further legal developments. The statement said "the judgment of the Andhra Pradesh High Court will be implemented by ignoring the provision for reservation of 4.5% seats and by converting seats meant for OBC (non-creamy layer)-minority community to OBC (non-creamy layer) category".

With this, about 325 candidates who had been shortlisted under the sub-quota for counseling may have to compete with the 27% OBC non-creamy layer quota. This means that aspirants who were assured of the course of their choice will now have to keep their options open. The statement also said that "all the shortlisted candidates are advised to note that availability of 4.5% reservation for OBC (non creamy layer-minority) shall depend on the legal developments till June 13 and hence they may register the choice of courses accordingly."IIT

Counselling for admission to 15 IITs and IT-BHU and ISM-Dhanbad is currently underway and the process will go on till June 10. The web release of the first seat allotment will be made on June 14. The IITs are the first to implement the government's decision.

Digital Media Company, ValueFirst has acquired Way2online - a Hyderabad based Consumer Focused Internet Technology Company, which owns and operates Way2sms.com and 160by2.com – in an all cash deal (expected to be in the ballpark of Rs. 200 Crores)

We earlier reported or rather broke the news of Way2SMS acquiring 160by2 in December, 2011.valuefirst

The VFirst transaction is one of the largest acquisitions in the Internet industry in India that makes ValueFirst (as claimed) the largest digital media company in India in terms of revenue as well as the number of users. With this acquisition, ValueFirst will cross 50 million profiled registered users, add 40,000 fresh registrations daily and get to 250 crores of revenue this financial year.

V. Raju – the founder and CEO of way2sms and his dedicated team have created a great asset that has huge scale, traffic, monetisation and has created excellent engagement with consumers. The potential to build further on way2sms.com, 160by2.com is immense as ValueFirst can now leverage the huge inventories that these sites have through its large sales infra and 4000 strong client base.

Way2sms has grown completely virally and despite Facebook’s popularity in India way2sms still adds an amazing 30,000 new registrations daily. Its one of the top searched keywords in India and more than 500 million contacts have been saved on way2sms.com. There is massive potential to explode the traffic further by creating social sharing with saved contacts – which is practically an extension of one’s phonebook”. [Kumar Apoorv, CEO, ValueFirst Group]

The Indian Music Industry (IMI), an industry consortium of 142 music Companies, has obtained orders from the Calcutta High Court directing all Internet Service Providers (387 ISPs) to block 104 music sites. Court orders were obtained on 27th of January, 6th February, and the 1st and 2nd of March 2012.

ISPs have been directed by the court to block all 104 sites within 36 hours. It essentially has the order against Songs.pk as a sample. Apurv Nagpal, CEO of Saregama, told MediaNama that the first order was against songs.pk, and subsequent court orders covered the rest of the sites. The IMI made a case against each website, he added, with proof of piracy of content from labels by each site.

Indian content businesses have increasingly been taking the legal route to combat piracy: T-Series filed lawsuits against several major companies like YouTube (which was later settled), MySpace, Yahoo and Ibibo, and even got the founders of Guruji.com arrested. Reliance BIG Pictures began getting generic “John Doe” orders trying to force filesharing sites to prevent movie uploads, and getting some of them blocked. This is by far the biggest anti-piracy initiative till date.

How They Will Block?

The court has asked ISPs to block the sites using any of the three methods:

DNS Name blocking: which ISPs use to for looking up IP addresses corresponding to domain names. However, it is possible for filesharing sites to change their domain name: as we reported earlier,like Songs.pk renamed as Songspk.pk

IP Address blocking using routers: IP address blocking using routers. However, it is possible for sites to be hosted on alternate servers, once blocked, so this might not entirely address the issue.
DPI based URL blocking: “This mechanism involves configuring the ISP’s network management system to monitor traffic by means of Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and reset or block a customer’s connection to specific Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) as defined in the network management system’s Access Control Lists” DPI-based URL blocking is necessary can be used to block only a portion of a website, for example, “www.example.com/home.html” only, instead of “www.example.com.”
What This Means

The information docket lists each of the 387 ISPs in India, all the 104 music sites, and certain legitimate sites in India, which provide legal options for consumers: Saregama, Nokia Music, Flipkart, Cyworld, 7digital, Gaana*, In, IndiaONE, Meridhun, MyBand, Raaga, Radio One, Saavn, Dhingana, Artist Aloud and Telugu One.

The intent is evident : at one end, IMI is using legal means to stop illegal downloads, and at the other, it is propping up legal businesses. This could act as a fillip for legal sites – perhaps users might choose to stream music over the cloud or buy it online instead of downloading for free. On the other hand, they could find alternate means, through file sharing sites and torrents. Nagpal told that the IMI will go after filesharing sites next, so it appears that the battle against online piracy of Indian music is well and truly on now, and music labels are beginning to take online revenues a lot more seriously.

This might be a consequence of changes in mobile marketing and mobile ringbacktone subscription policies, enforced by the TRAI, which might have impacted mobile revenues.

Here is the list of the sites which IMI wants to block via court orders.
