SC ruling allows transgender at MICA campus

Shubhangi Pandey updated on : 24 Oct, 2014 0

Supreme Court’s verdicts regarding the transgender candidates’ rights to education this April has called for some freshness in the institutes’ policies.

Mudra Institute of Communications Ahmedabad (MICA) has invited applications from transgender candidates for its next academic year as the SC ruling now recognises the transgender as ‘third gender’.

Welcoming this change in the admission policy, MICA will be applying this decision to its three major residential programmes, the post graduate diploma in management-communications (PGDM-C), the post graduate certificate programme in crafting creative communications (PGCP-CCC) and the fellow programme in management-communications (FPM-C).

Its online programmes will soon follow. Admissions will, however, be based on merit.

Expressing MICA’s take on the same, Dr Nagesh Rao, president and director at MICA, said, “MICA extends a warm welcome to transgender applicants interested in applying for our programmes. We believe their presence on campus will add to the dynamic diversity of our student profile and thus enrich the exposure and knowledge exchange on campus.”

Hopefully this ruling of the Supreme Court and the welcoming change in the admission policy by an eminent institute such as MICA will call for enhancing the education scene in the country. And if more such institutes follow suit then the educational opportunities would also increase for all.
