DU Recruitments: Finding solutions to the concerns over safety and security arrangements during the recruitment processes in colleges, the Delhi University Principals’ Association (DUPA) raised the issues on Sunday. The resolution comes in the backdrop of a protest held by teacher activists at Ramjas College on Saturday night while the college’s selection committee meeting was going on.

Several Delhi University colleges are conducting Interviews and selections for recruiting teachers on a permanent basis. On Saturday night, protesting teachers had gathered on the Ramjas College premises over fears that ad-hoc teachers would be displaced by the selection process. The DUPA also stated that the university should consider arranging for alternative venues in case disruptions are anticipated.

“… the DUPA condemns the illegal, unconstitutional and uncalled-for intervention by some individuals and teacher groups to disrupt this process of recruitment in some colleges. The continued disruption of the selection process in the form of presence by some activists in the Ramjas College, University of Delhi, was totally uncalled for and illogical,” the resolution reads.
