Two VCs at office despite tenure expiry illegal: Haritwal


Alleges of grafts in recruitments at RSU, Holds VC Prof SK Pandey responsible

Raipur, October 22, 2012

Terming continuation of two vice chancellors (VCs) from Bastar and Sarguja universities illegal, the NSUI’s state vice president Subodh Haritwal on Monday alleged that it was happening due to government’s silent support. He further alleged of corruption in recruitment procedures adopted by Pt Ravishankar Shukla University (RSU) VC Professor SK Pandey.

“The appointments of Bastar VC Professor Jailaxmi Thakur and Sarguja VC Dr SK Verma were done by the government for four years on September 4, 2008. The tenures of both the VCs have expired but they are doing new appointments without authority,” Haritwal said.

“Similarly, the RSU VC Professor SK Pandey had conducted scrutiny of applications of candidates, who have applied for teaching faculty posts, ignoring UGC norms. On the basis of this wrong scrutiny process, the candidates were invited for interview. This indicates gross corruption in the entire recruitment procedure,” he alleged.

He further charged that Pandey had twisted norms of recruitment to induct specific persons linked with leaders of the ruling BJP. “Pandey did it to get second term as VC at RSU,” he said.

“If the government would not curb illegal activities in the Bastar, Sarguja and RSU, the NSUI will launch aggressive agitation against it,” he warned.

  1. Irregularities in appointment of Vice-Chancellor , Bastar University, Jagdalpur (C.G.)
    Honorable Sir,
    .
    We wish to bring to your kind notice following facts regarding appointment of Vice-Chancellor at Bastar University ,Jagdalpur

    1. Norms and rules and regulation 2010 of University Grants Commission for appointment of Vice-Chancellor was not followed by search committee.
    2. According to UGC regulation Persons of the highest level of competence, integrity, morals and institutional commitment are to be appointed as Vice-Chancellors. The Vice-Chancellor to be appointed should be a distinguished academician, with a minimum of ten years of experience as Professor in a University system or ten years of experience in an equivalent position in a reputed research and / or academic administrative organization. but Dr.N.D.R.Chandra not completed ten year as Professor at the time of submission of application from last date of application was 15 January 2013. His application for Professorship was rejected by the Screening Committee on grounds of poor qualification. However, through illegal maneuvers he was appointed Professor.
    3. Dr.N.D.R.Chandra Passed B.A PRIVATE in Third division, M.A. PRIVATE Second division and began his career as postman is working as a Professor in Nagaland University, reportedly university of last choice for any academician in the country.
    4. Recently he was rejected in interview of Professor held on 22 January 2013 at Guru Ghasidas Central University Bilaspur C.G. on grounds of poor qualification. His Academic performance index is less than 400 which is minimum requirement for Professor according to UGC regulation 2010.
    5. The Nagaland University Teachers’ Association, Kohima (NUTAK) compliant against Dr. Chandra to his vice chancellor in 2011 he has a habit of harassing Research Scholars of other Supervisors by ensuring their PhD registrations are kept pending indefinitely. These scholars are also compelled to engage his classes. However, the most unethical practice is that he forces them to evaluate examination scripts of his papers. these are extremely confidential matters and not to be transferred to others, particularly scholars. In the event one cannot evaluate scripts the same must be intimated to the Controller of Examinations in written and scripts surrendered in sealed packets.
    6. There is a case of molestation against Dr. N.D.R. Chandra when he conducted a Refresher Course for college teachers in 1999. An investigation conducted had indicted him but the reports suddenly went missing and the case is in cold storage till date.
    7. He is the member of RSS.
    In the name of justice and fairplay it is requested that this appointment of Vice-Chancellor should be cancelled at earliest
