JAMMU, Nov 8: After a long wait, Jammu University finally got permanent appointments on its three key administrative positions; Registrar, Controller of Examination and Finance Officer.
Dr Neeraj Sharma has been appointed as Registrar, Sanjeev Mahajan as Controller of Examinations, and Dr Jitender Khajuria as Finance Officer, each bringing significant expertise and dedication to their respective positions.
The University had to rely on ad hoc internal arrangements for these positions for many years due to one or the other reason. Recognising the critical need for permanent, dedicated appointees to ensure greater stability and efficiency, JU Vice-Chancellor Prof Umesh Rai took proactive steps to initiate a formal recruitment process, which led to these appointments.
According to the Vice Chancellor, these appointments mark a significant milestone after years of these positions being temporarily filled through internal adjustments within the University. He also extended his heartfelt gratitude to the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, for his vision to strengthen the University through the permanent appointments of its three key administrative positions.
Meanwhile, the outgoing Registrar, Prof Rahul Gupta has been given the charge of Rector Bhaderwah Campus, University of Jammu, in addition to his existing duties while five Deputy Registrars have been promoted as Joint Registrar and accorded placement in the Pay Band of Rs 37400-67000 with Grade Pay of Rs 123100-215900 (Level-13) with effect from October 30, 2024.
