From The Hindu, June 25, 1975: Gold bank on model of unit trust suggested

Bombay, June 24: Mr. Shantilal Sonawala, President of the Bombay Bullion Association, told pressmen here to-day that a 'gold bank' should be set up to mobilise the stock of gold. He said that the gold bank could be run on the model of the Unit Trust. It could issue a certificate of unit expressed in terms of the quantity of gold deposited with the bank. 'The unit may be say 10 gms of gold. One can purchase this unit against deposit of gold. The bank is under obligation to return this gold either on demand or after a stipulated period as may be discussed and finalised,' he suggested. 'When the bank accumulates such gold, it deposits the same with the Central Bank here in India with the Reserve Bank and gets a loan on liberal terms. The bank invests this loan money in securities, shares or other productive investments on the line of the Unit Trust of India to get a fair return on such capital. The bank declares the dividend to its gold depositors from such earnings,' he added. Mr. Sonawala also wanted the Government of India to formulate a policy for exporting gold. From statistics available, he said, India had a stock of 4,500 tonnes equivalent to 144 million ounces of gold valued at Rs. 22,000 crores. As regards the export of silver, Mr. Sonawala said that about 150 million ounces of silver had been exported out of India till the end of 1974. The figure included official as well as unofficial exports. Thus they had been left with a stock of about 2,600 million ounces of silver.

NLU PG aspirant challenges ‘exorbitant' counselling fee, HC sends notice

New Delhi: Delhi High Court declined any interim relief to a Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) postgraduate candidate who complained that the counselling fee charged by the consortium of National Law Universities (NLUs) was "exorbitant". Justice Rajneesh Kumar Gupta, however, sought the stand of the consortium, Bar Council of India, University Grants Commission, central govt and others by July 2. In his plea, the candidate said he could not participate in the second round of counselling on June 20 as the rules mandated he deposit Rs 20,000 as "upfront payment" after he already paid Rs 30,000 as a refundable counselling fee for the first round. The plea assailed Clause 2, Admissions Counselling Process, which provides for a freeze option, where whenever any candidate wants to book a spot, he is required to deposit a "non-refundable confirmation fee" of Rs 20,000.

"Thus, via various sub-clauses of Clause 2.1, for the 2nd and 3rd/final round of counselling, the candidate would be required to pay a non-refundable amount of Rs 20,000-40,000 only for freezing their seat in both the rounds," the petition argued, saying such a steep fee has "absolutely no nexus" with the counselling's stated purpose and creates a financial barrier for many students. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Falta Apenas 1 Minuto para Garantir Seu Aparelho Grátis Aparelhos Auditivo PT Undo "I cannot participate without making payment of Rs 20,000 for per-round participation… This is the only exam in the whole country which charges such a large amount. Hundreds of students are not able to participate in the counselling. I missed the second round and the third round is on July 4," the counsel argued. The court refused the plea for interim relief in the form of a waiver, but posted it for further hearing next month.
