Dear Colleagues,

As you know, a meeting of the Executive Council is scheduled for Friday, 25 October. Amongst other things, the EC will consider the MoU under the proposal of DU to become an Institute of Eminence.

After a detailed discussion on the MoU, the DUTA Executive  took a decision to call for a Total Shutdown of the University on Friday, 25 October 2019 and a Dharna from 1pm to 3 pm outside the Executive Council meeting to protest against this move and also to demand the withdrawal of the 28th August 2019 letter asking for guest appointments to be made against all new vacancies. The DUTA will also write to the Vice-Chancellor and other members of the Executive Council against signing of this MoU.

Please read the DUTA Press Release (dated 22.10.2019) for a comprehensive critique of the proposal.

Regards,
