<div style="clear: left; float: left; height: auto; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 53px; width: 490px;">In India freedom of the media is part of the freedom of speech guaranteed by Article 19 (1) (a) of the constitution. However, no freedom can be absolute, and reasonable restrictions can be placed on them. One of the basic tasks of the media is to provide truthful and objective information to the people which will enable them to form rational opinions, which is a sine qua non in a democracy. But is the Indian media performing this role properly?</div><div style="clear: left; float: left; height: auto; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 53px; width: 490px;">Any newspaper or television channel has the challenging job of accommodating a wide variety of interests, and there is no point being in denial about this. At one end is the need to cater to a mass of people who seem to be on an endless buying spree, from cars to clothes and everything in between; at the other, the need to rewind them that there are people who cannot buy even one square meal a day. The challenge for media organizations is to get the mix right, without compromising on the essentials of journalism.</div><div style="clear: left; float: left; height: auto; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 53px; width: 490px;">The seminar asks the basic question on regulating the media.

SRM students design All Terrain Vehicle

Nowadays, students seem to have become more competitive than corporates,  throwing up stiff challenges towards the manufacturing sector even  while they are on campus. The students of Automobile Engineering, SRM  University, have done something that have raised several eyebrows in the  automobile manufacturing sector. They have built a high performance All  Terrain Vehicle (ATV) right from the scratch.<br />A team of students  from the University’s official BAJA team won the national level overall  championship earlier this month for the creation of ‘The Concords’ — an  off-road racing car. They competed with over 244 colleges all over the  country and emerged victorious.<br />The team of 24 students drawn from  various branches such as Mechanical Engineering, Automobile Engineering,  Electronics and Communication Engineering and Mechatronics completed  the project after nine months of hard work. The completion not only  involved fabrication of the ATV from scratch, but also taking it to  Pitampur in Madhya Pradesh to test it for a range of parameters such as  acceleration, maneuverability, hill climb and endurance race.<br />The  Car, officially christened ‘Dirt Reaper 2.0’, powered by a 304cc Briggs  and Stratton engine, was completely fabricated by the students at the  University lab. They began designing the vehicle using modeling  softwares, then analysing the design and finally fabricating and testing  the finished product. The team was led by K Subhash Babu, a final year  Automobile Engineering student, and consisted of 13 final year students,  seven third year students and four second year students.<br />R  Veluswamy, Senior Engine Manager, Mahindra & Mahindra Limited, said,  “A normal Scorpio car is designed in such a way it could climb heights  at an angle of 14 degrees. But the best part of this model of ‘Dirt  Reaper 2.0’ is that it can climb heights at an angle of 39 degrees,  which is outstanding.”

Prof. N Sethuraman, the registrar of SRM University, lodged a complaint with Chennai city police

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Prof. N Sethuraman, the registrar of SRM University, lodged a complaint 
with Chennai city police that the university has come across several 
fake websites, names of illegal agents, individuals and companies, all 
whom claim to be agents of SRM University.http://www.deccanchronicle.com/channels/cities/chennai/cheats-make-rs-100-crore-seat-promise-873<br />

People posing as agents of professional colleges cheat students of as
 much as Rs 100 crore every year by promising seats in various 
educational institutes, police revealed even as parents gear up to get 
their children admitted to engineering and medical courses.<br />

“My assumption is that innocent parents give away at least Rs100 
crore to fake agents. Last year alone, the proprietor of a professional 
college in the city repaid several parents more than Rs 8 crore that had
 been swindled by agents from parents promising admission for their 
children,” a police official who is familiar with such complaints told <i>Deccan Chronicle.</i></div>
