DUTA takes serious note of the blatant violation of the long-standing convention of appointment of Vice-Principal by rotation according to seniority by the Principal who not only illegally removed the incumbent Vice-Principal Dr. Meenakshi Gupta in middle of her term. What is shocking is that the Principal even refused to honour the requisition by five Governing Body members to call G.B. meeting to discuss the issue of Dr. Meenakshi Gupta. DUTA also condemns the role of the University whose representatives (one of them being chairman of G.B.) in a truncated GB violated the long established norms of seniority for the appointment of Vice-Principal.
DUTA, therefore, demands the cancellation of the appointment of the Vice-Principal done illegally on 23rd Nov, 2013 and that Dr. Meenakshi Gupta be allowed to complete her term as Vice-Principal. DUTA has also received representation by the Staff Association of the College alleging several administrative and financial irregularities on the part of the Principal. DUTA, after considering the representation, resolves to demand that an impartial inquiry into the administrative and financial irregularities be instituted by the Governing Body at the earliest.
Further, DUTA resolve to undertake actions such as writing to the Police Commissioner of Delhi about the role of the police, organize Dharna at the college and press conference to highlight the irregularities committed by the Principal of Shri Aurobindo college.
