Sources said the acting director removed the temporary employees — including deputy director (accounts), assistant registrar (accounts) and assistant registrar (establishment), who were on contract-basis — from their posts.

The acting director held a meeting with the deans and decided to go for an overhaul and reshuffled the administrative posts.

Earlier, after complaints by several employees, a marathon meeting was held at the NIT on Wednesday between a high-powered committee from the union ministry of human resource development and students and staff over academics and financial management.
