Panjab University directs affiliated colleges to appoint principals, teachers
Panjab University has directed some of the colleges affiliated with it in Chandigarh to appoint principals and teachers. The move comes after the inspection committee had pointed out for the temporary extension of affiliation for the academic year 2022-23.
Two colleges – Government College of Arts, Sector 10, and Government College of Yoga Education and Health, Sector 23 – have been asked to appoint principals on regular basis. Government College of Art has also sought affiliation for a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) first and second year (40 seats each) and an advanced diploma in Fine Arts for Divyang (4 seats).
“The college is required to appoint principal on regular basis within 3-6 months and in the meantime, any senior-most faculty member, who is eligible, may be given the charge of officiating principal with immediate effect,” the PU stated in a communication to the college.
The Panjab University has also directed the colleges to fill the sanctioned positions immediately as many faculty members are working on a contract basis. The need for the upgrade and maintenance of classrooms, auditorium and exhibition hall has also been outlined.
While speaking about the same, one of the facility members of the college, told HT that the absence of the regular principal had severely impacted the functioning of the college.
The government college of Yoga Education and Health has also been asked to appoint a regular principal. The college has also been asked to appoint four assistant professors with specialisation in yoga education, three assistant professors with specialisation in pedagogy of language (English/Hindi/Punjabi) and a librarian on a regular basis.
The Brahmrishi Yoga Training College, Sector 19, and Government Rehabilitation Institute for Intellectual Disabilities (GRIID), Sector 31, has also been directed by the Panjab University to appoint faculty members.
