Justice Subramonium Prasad of the Delhi High Court has issued notice in a plea challenging appointment of teachers on contract basis in universities governed by the UGC Regulations, 2018, despite there being vacancies in the permanent/regular teaching staff posts. The petition, filed by one Saurav Narayan, seeks direction for strict enforcement of Clause 13 of the University Grants Commission Regulations, 2018, which provides that teachers should be appointed on contract basis only when it is absolutely necessary. Particularly in the context of Delhi University's Faculty of Law, the petitioner highlights that there are 287 sanctioned posts for teaching staff on permanent/regular basis. It is claimed that over 35 percent teachers were recruited on contract/temporary basis in Delhi University's Faculty of Law in October, 2023 alone, in violation of Clause 13 the UGC Regulations, 2018.
