JAMMU, June 8: National Secular Forum (NSF) today declared that it would launch tehsil level protests against the irregularities and favouritism going on at University of Jammu (JU) besides appointment of incompetent officers on key positions in the administration.
The Forum announced that it would also organize a sit-in protest outside the Raj Bhawan to seek the attention of the Governor N N Vohra, who is also Chancellor of JU.
Addressing the media persons here, Surjit Choudhary NSF senior vice-president, JU Campus, said that the deserving candidates were ignored during the admission of MBA course in the campus, while favourites and blue-eyed were given preference.
Not only this, the scholars who appeared in the viva voice for the fulfillment of the PhD Degree were not interviewed by the concerned expert but from other fields,” he alleged.
“There are gross irregularities in the admission and placement process and the the university authorities have been maintaining stoic silence on the issue despite raising the issue by NSF,” he said.
Demanding an in-depth inquiry into gross irregularities, Singh announced that the NSF activists would launch vigorous agitation from Monday and if the authorities didn’t remove the incumbent Director of The Business School, they would stage a sit-in outside Raj Bhawan on coming days.
He also took on the Vice-Chancellor of the varsity, Professor Mohan Paul Singh Ishar for appointing incompetent officers on key positions of varsity administration.
“It is shocking that the VC has appointed Prof Manoj K Dhar as new Registrar of the varsity who had been proved as failure during his previous assignment of Controller of Examinations”, he said and demanded that the new registrar be removed and replaced with some competent and capable person to restore the credibility of the post.
