DU quashes appointment of Bharati college principal
The appointment of the Bharati College principal has been quashed by Delhi University after the college's governing body objected to the selection process, stating that University Grants Commission (UGC) rules were violated. Governing body chairman Daya Nath Jha has written to the DU, demanding that the appointment be quashed as the apex committee of the university did not finalise the name on the basis of merit.
It must be noted that the interview for the principal post for Bharati College was held on August 10. The governing body had sent three names, which were placed in the order of preference. However, the governing said that the apex committee of the DU recommended the third name on the panel for an appointment, ignoring the first two names. In a circular issued on September 11 to Jha, the assistant registrar (colleges) of the DU said the appointment of the principal in Bharati College stands withdrawn and the selection process stands quashed.
"I have been directed to inform you that it has been decided that the letter dated 22.08.2022 issued in connection with the appointment of principal stands withdrawn. Consequently, the said selection process stands quashed," the circular read.
"In view of the above, I have been further directed to take immediate necessary steps in re-advertising the post of principal of your college in terms of the proviso of Ordinance XVIII, Clause 7 of the university, after taking into account the qualifications or eligibility criteria envisaged under Ordinance XXIV of the university conveyed to the colleges or institutions of the university," it added.
