Despite multiple reminders, over 65 per cent private universities in the state have not yet uploaded their data pertaining to students’ record, financial transactions, examinations and its other operations on the government’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) portal for the current academic session.
Enterprise Resource Planning portal
- The online ERP portal for the DHE is a comprehensive and integrated platform that streamlines academic and administrative processes across colleges and universities
- It effectively manages admissions, course offerings, students’ record, and financial transactions, facilitating smooth operations.
- Additionally, the portal supports vital functions like government scheme verification, procurement assessment, and infrastructure management.
- Moreover, it also empowers students by enabling them to manage personal data, make fee payments and provide feedback, enhancing the educational experience.
Taking a serious note, the Department of Higher Education (DHE) has warned of taking appropriate action against them if they fail to provide the information within a week.
“There are 24 private universities across the state and 16 among them located in Jhajjar, Ambala, Faridabad, Gurugram, Hisar, Kaithal, Pawal, Panipat and Sonepat districts are yet to upload the requisite information on the ERP portal despite repeated warnings. Three universities have not even updated their data for the previous 2022-23 session as well,” claimed an official at the DHE.
He said all private universities were bound to upload requisite information on the portal every year. The practice was necessary not only to keep a tab on the working of the private universities but also to properly use e-governance. Some universities seemed to be lethargic but they would have to upload the requisite information, he added.
“You are again requested to upload/update all requisite pending data (of all previous year) and for the academic session 2023-24 of your universities on the ERP portal within a week, so that further action may be initiated in the matter otherwise you will be responsible for any adverse order passed against the university,” states a communiqué sent to the Vice-Chancellor of all such private universities from the DHE, recently. Meanwhile, the Registrar of one of the universities on condition of anonymity said uploading the information on the portal was a time-consuming process hence the universities usually got delayed in updating the information.
