Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Technical University (AKTU) registrar Sachin Kumar Singh is facing serious charges of financial anomalies. Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel has ordered the suspension of Sachin Kumar Singh with immediate effect.
During Singh’s suspension period, the acting vice-chancellor of AKTU, Lucknow, shall hand over the charge of the registrar’s office to some other officer, the order says, as reported by Hindustan Times.
The 25-page inquiry report was submitted on 20 March. In the investigation report, all the allegations levelled against Registrar Sachin Kumar Singh have been found to be prima facie correct. After this, his suspension order has been issued and an order was given to complete the investigation by forming a 3-member final inquiry committee, as reported by Dainik Bhasker.
In the preliminary investigation, 9 allegations against registrar Sachin Kumar Singh have been confirmed to be true. These include cases related to financial irregularities from AKTU to IET. Out of these, there was also an allegation of defaming the vice-chancellors of state universities.
The Governor has alleged that there were many complaints against Singh. Prof. Anurag Tripathi, ex-controller of examinations, AKTU, made a complaint to the technical education minister on dated March 22 last year, levelling serious allegations against Singh regarding commission of financial bungling and maladministration etc by him in connivance with the then AKTU VC prof Pradeep Kumar Mishra.
On similar charges, on February 4, the Governor removed AKTU vice chancellor Prof Pradeep Kumar Mishra who later resigned from the post.
