The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has made serious allegations against the Shiv Sena-led government for curtailing the governor’s powers to appoint vice chancellors. It said the kitchen cabinet of the Yuva Sena will make new appointments and the appointees will be used to grab the land of the Mumbai university campus.
“Do they want to make persons like Sachin Waze the vice chancellors? Will such persons sign the degree certificates?” asked BJP legislator Ashish Shelar at a media conference on Thursday. He said the Uddhav Thackeray government does not approve of a provision of having search committees comprising retired supreme/high court judges, academicians, Padma awardees and secretary of the higher and technical education department to select five VC nominees.
