Chaudhary Devi Lal University, Sirsa is named after
JanNayak ChaudharyDevi Lal, the former Deputy Prime Minister
of India and the former Chief Minister of Haryana. Ch. Devi Lal
was a veteran freedom fighter and a symbol of patience and
fortitude. He proved himself to be a man of action, be it freedom
movement, post-independence politics or the amelioration of the
plight of the suffering peasantry. He firmly held that 'true Swaraj'
means participation of thepoor, illiterate, underprivileged millions
living in our villages in the governance of the state at every level.
He commanded respect for his struggle to see the people's power
reflected in the people's rule and his commitment to the upliftment
of downtrodden sections of society, which included farmers, the
labourers and women. His contribution to agricultural reforms
won him deep reverence. No wonder that for this patronage he was
nicknamed as "Tau".
He wanted the youth to have a definite goal of
contribution towardsnation building and visualized teacher taught
engaged in a constructive relationship. He always wanted the
education system to impart true knowledge and therefore, desired
fundamental changes and meaningful investments in education in
a manner that would empower the youth especially the poor
through skill development. His concerns encompassed other
welfare measures like providing health facilities and expanding
educational avenues. He regarded it a 'dharma' (duty) of the
Government to provide a good, balanced diet, necessary clothing
and shelter to each individual of the society.As the Deputy Prime
Minister of India and one of the architects of the state of Haryana
his services to Haryana and the country are indeed unforgettable.
Let us take pride in being a part of the University named after this'JanNayak', andseekinspiration fromsuch a 'Karmayogi'.

CHAPTER 3
MESSAGE
It is a matter of immense pleasure for me to launch the new Ph.D.Ordinance of Ch. Devi Lal University, Sirsa. The very need for another,
underlines the commitment of the university to reinstate its research criteria and
goals.
We are living in an age of knowledge, and universitiesas the epicentersof
intellectual activities both for creating and disseminating knowledge, are of
immense national significance in the knowledge economy of the twenty first
century. Theintellectual environment of theuniversitymust bedrivenby a multipurposeconviction.
First, the university must aim at carving out a niche for itself in the globalised world by
concentrating on the quality of research while focusing on quantification, for the latter without the
former is a national wastage. University is not a centre for collection/ production of data for the use of
other nations. Ournational interests demand that while processing the discovery of answers/ solutions,
the research questions must be driven byingenuity, the research must exhibit a critical engagement with
the local in the context of the global, involve funding from other agencies and yield new knowledge by
adding new theoretical dimensions to the dominant paradigms. Prepackaged research questions and
hegemonic solutions will have to be discouraged through the inculcation of the capacity to 'rethink' in
thepost colonial world especially in humanitiesandsocial sciences.
Second, multidisciplinary research must be encouraged especially in life sciences.
Groundbreaking research in the world has shown how interface among different knowledge domains
have been able to find effective solutions to complex problems. The university will gear itself to
undertake such interdisciplinary research. I hope some inter-departmental research projections are
undertaken in the first phase to be further strengthened through formulation of cohesive research teamsengaging renowned outside expertise.
Third, research must be incorporated into teaching. Not only the post graduation programmes
must have a research component, action research must also continue parallel to teaching. Besides,
research produces public intellectuals, and the public intellectuals must be reproduced by training the
next generationof scholars. OurUniversitywill make sufficientefforts in this direction.
Chaudhary Devi Lal University has introduced PhD programmes in all the teaching
Departments. To supervise research leading to PhDdegree,highly qualified and experienced faculty is
actively engaged in various research based activities. In a persistent and sincere effort to enhance the
potential of faculty by actively engaging in and executing funded research projects, post-doctoral
programmes, organising and participating in conferences, workshops and seminars, both at nationaland international levels, and publishing their research outcomes in the form of books and research
articles in journals of national and international repute. Hence, there is no exaggeration in the assertion
that Chaudhary Devi Lal University Sirsa is one of the potential centres to promote research
programmes and studies.
I wish that our budding scholars under the able supervision of teachers will give quality research
yield of practical application. I wish them all the very best for their research endeavours and success in
life.
