is certain that the university may not meet the March 31 high court deadline.
Statistics revealed by the university to the directors of affiliated colleges state that there are only 207 candidates in six districts under university’s jurisdiction who qualify for the post of principal.
Former MLA Sunil Shinde, who also heads the directors’ body, attributed the inability to appoint principals to acute shortage of eligible candidates.
“The high court had directed the university to prepare a data bank of eligible candidates who can become principals and send the list to its affiliated institutions. Sadly, it had sent us a list of only 207 candidates who too were not willing to leave their present assignments. In such a situation from where we are going to get the candidates?” Shinde asked.
Shinde said that vice chancellor S N Pathan issued a letter to all colleges to fill up the posts before March 31. The letter also warned that if the colleges failed to fill the principal’s posts, then their first year admissions would be stopped. Still, if a college fails to act till the year 2010, the university will stop conducting examinations of students of the said college. Subsequently, the university will disaffiliate the college if it fails name the principal by the year 2011.
