The governor had issued a notification on September 6 notifying the constitution of a search-cum-selection committee to select a candidate to be appointed as the vice-chancellor of the university
The department’s advertisement has come at a time when several candidates have already applied in response to the Raj Bhawan advertisement and the process of screening is set to start to fill the position of VCs in six universities, which will fall vacant next month.
The high court on March 14 cancelled the appointment of vice chancellors of 29 state universities whose term was extended till May 31, ruling that the state has no power to appoint, re-appoint or extend the tenure of V-Cs
