Calicut varsity V-C selection process may take time

The process to pick a new Vice-Chancellor for the University of Calicut is likely to take some more time. A meeting of the university’s Senate, which was supposed to be held on September 28 to pick its nominee for the search-cum-selection committee, has been postponed. The search-cum-selection committee needs to have nominees of the Chancellor, the Senate, and the University Grants Commission. Though Mr. Khan chose to set up his own committee without the Senate nominee for some of the universities, he got adverse orders from the High Court. The government and the ruling party are reportedly of the view that the Chancellor is unlikely to form a committee on his own in the University of Calicut as it may face legal challenges.
