RunAddicts 7th Annual Run – A Grand Success!
Bengaluru :The 7th Annual RunAddicts even tgt, held today at RR Nagar, was a resounding success! With the inspiring theme 'Run to Educate Rural Child,' this event was organized to support the education of children in rural areas. We extend our heartfelt thanks to our key sponsors — Connectivity Solutions, Gleneagles BGS, Vikaas Infra, Sadhvana Managed Farms, and Webinspiron — whose generous support played a vital role in making this event possible. Over 4,000 registered participants from across the city came together to run for a cause. People of all age groups — from 4 to 90 years — enthusiastically participated in the 10K, 5K, and 3K runs, many along with their families. This was a completely green and eco-friendly event, consciously conducted without the use of plastic or paper. The entire run was driven and managed by more than 250 dedicated RunAddicts volunteers. RunAddicts has been hosting this flagship event in the month of June every year since 2017, except during the COVID years. The funds raised through registrations, donations, sponsorships, and CSR partnerships will go towards: • Distributing notebooks to rural schools • Providing sports materials • Supporting school infrastructure (benches, toilets, etc.) • Awarding scholarships to deserving students • Assisting with staffing needs in under-resourced schools RunAddicts is a community of over 4,500 fitness enthusiasts, founded in 2016. It is a non-commercial, non-political, and non-religious volunteer-driven organization. Membership is free and open to all. Beyond the annual run, RunAddicts has conducted 62 monthly runs to engage the RR Nagar community in fitness. The group also undertakes various social initiatives, including tree plantation drives and COVID-19 relief efforts, such as free vaccination camps and aid distribution. Together, we ran not just for fitness, but for a brighter future for rural children.

Senate members seek clarity on picking minor courses for FYUGP in Calicut varsity
A group of Senate members in the University of Calicut has sought clarity on the recent direction from the Higher Education department on picking minor (subsidiary) courses for four-year undergraduate programmes (FYUGP) in affiliated colleges. In a letter to Vice-Chancellor (V-C) P. Raveendran, Senate members V.M. Chacko, P. Sulfi, E. Sreelatha, Manoj Mathews, R. Jayakumar, and G. Sunil Kumar pointed out that according to the clause 7.2.13 of the regulations for the FYUGP, students in 34 departments including English, Malayalam, Hindi, Arabic, Commerce, Economics, Biotechnology, Hotel Management, Tourism, and Afzal-ul-Ulama were earlier allowed to study minor courses in a discipline different than their major (main) courses from the same departments. They claimed that the University Grants Commission (UGC) had not barred granting major and minor courses in more than one subject from the same department. However, a controversy was created by calling this option 'self minor course', and the university had been directed to change the provision, the Senate members said. They alleged that the issue had not been properly discussed so far in the elected bodies of the university, and subject experts had not been consulted either. They said the confusion arose from equating various departments with distinct disciplines, whereas a single department could encompass multiple disciplines. For example, the Department of English could include disciplines such as English Literature, Functional English, and Cultural Studies. Each of the 34 departments mentioned above could similarly contain different disciplines. It was up to the academic forums of the university to define the term for the purpose. The Senate members added that the university was not mandated to accept any decision that contradicted this. At Mahatma Gandhi University, they claimed, students are allowed to pursue minor courses within the same department in which they are studying their major. Expert committees are constituted for various disciplines to offer both major and minor courses. The Senate members urged the V-C to allow students to choose minor courses aligned with their major subjects. Otherwise, students would be forced to study subjects they were not interested in. They said this goes against the UGC's directives and the National Education Policy. 'The issue is likely to be taken up at the Senate meeting scheduled for June 25,' claimed sources.
