It also supports new innovations in Class Room and Laboratory / Teaching Technology, development of Lab Instructional Material and appropriate Technology to ensure that the practical work and project work to be carried out by students is contemporary and suited to the needs of the Industry. The equipment financed under the scheme could be ideally used for upgradation of equipment in existing laboratories, enhancement of performance parameter specification of existing equipment, incorporation of latest development in the field and replacement of old depreciated equipment by modern equipment. In addition to above major objectives, the equipment installed through MODROBS can be used for indirect benefit to Faculty / Students through Continuing Education programmes, Training programmes for local industry and consultancy work. Eligibility AICTE approved Technical Institutions / University Departments with at least 10 years of existence. For self financing/Institutes: Maximum 3 proposals per institute per year including sanctioned but not completed would be considered. For Govt. /Govt. aided Institutes: Maximum 10 proposals per institute per year including sanctioned but not completed would be considered. Duration of the Project Duration of project will be one year from the date of receipt of funds in the institutes account. Limit of Funding Total funding of Rs.20 Lakh. Disbursement of the Funds 100% grant of sanctioned amount will be released to Govt. /Govt. aided Institutes. To private institutions, grants will be sanctioned in the form of 80% of the sanctioned amount as advance followed by 20% as reimbursement on submission of the Utilization certificate and other supporting documents as specified in terms and conditions of MODROB. Processing Methodology: The proposal shall be assessed by an expert committee constituted as follows: Three member expert committee not below the rank of Associate Professor.

Objectives Considering the accommodation problems being faced by SC/ST students in taking admissions in good engineering colleges, AICTE has launched a scheme for providing financial assistance for construction of hostels for men and women depending upon the need of the Institution. The scheme aims to support Government / Government-aided engineering colleges for construction of girls / boys hostels for providing residential accommodation for students / researchers belonging to SC/ST category. These hostels will also have add-on facility of Community Skill Development Centre for empowering SC / ST students with skill knowledge. AICTE has taken new initiative for skills development through NVEQF & Community Colleges. These centers will serve as facility for imparting Skill knowledge fostering underprivileged classes. It is expected that providing such a facility to the SC/ST students undergoing professional education will enhance the enrolment of the SC/ST students as well as improving the quality of education. This AICTE scheme is unique in the sense that the construction of the hostel for SC/ST students could be also done in the existing hostels in the institute by extension of the construction work. Eligibility Government / Government-aided engineering colleges/ University Departments are entitled for the grant. The Institute must be in existence for last five years. The Institute must have more than 150 SC/ST students on roll during last 3 years. Duration of Project The proposed/approved hostel for SC/ST will be constructed within 2 years from the date of receipt of offer letter. Limit of funding Rs. 2 Crores. Disbursement of the Funds Disbursement of 50% of the amount as advance on sanction. Disbursement of 40% of the amount on utilization of the 1st installment. Disbursement of 10% of the amount on submitting completion certificate by registered Civil Engineer/ Architect/ PWD.

CHAPTER - 28 INDEST
28.1.1 (a) OBJECTIVES
The Indian National Digital Library in Engineering Sciences and Technology (INDEST) Consortium was set up in 2003 by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) on the recommendation of an Expert Group appointed by the Ministry. The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi was designated as the Consortium Headquarters to co-ordinate its activities. The Consortium enrolls engineering and technological institutions as its members and subscribe to electronic resources for them at discounted rates of subscription and favorable terms and conditions. The benefit of consortia-based subscription to electronic resources is not confined to its core members but is also extended to all educational institutions under its open-ended proposition. 60 Govt./Govt.-aided engineering colleges are provided to access to selected electronic resources with financial support from the AICTE and 1015 engineering colleges and institutions who joined the Consortium has now grown to 1269. The Consortium was re-named as INDEST-AICTE Consortium in December 2005 with the AICTE playing a pivotal role in enrolling its approved engineering colleges and institutions as members of the Consortium for selected e-resources at much lower rates of subscription. The objectives of INDEST-AICTE consortium are as follows: 1. To subscribe electronic resources for the members of the Consortium at highly discounted rates of subscription and at the best terms and conditions. 2. To extend the benefit of consortia-based subscription beyond the core members to other engineering and technological institutions. 3. To impart training to the users and librarians in the members institutions on subscribed electronic resources with an aim to optimize the usage of subscribed electronic resources. 4. To find more avenues of cooperation and interaction amongst member libraries. 5. To increase scientific productivity of member institutions in terms of quality and quantity of publications. 6. To help new engineering institutes and colleges to make the right choice of e-resources. 7. To find more avenues of co-operation and interaction with other consortia. During the last four financial years under mentioned amount grant-in-aids were released for the exciting 60 institutions.
