The AMU Teachers Association, however, welcomed the move and said, "if the VC's slate is clean, then he should welcome this probe."

The probe followed eight members of AMU's executive council submitting a memorandum to President Pratibha Patil (who is the visitor to AMU) on April 6 this year alleging financial wrong doings by the vice chancellor.

The members accused Aziz of "blatantly" and "recklessly" violating all the standard financial norms and proprieties during his 21 month tenure as the vice chancellor.
