The Syndicate of the University of Calicut has assigned the Registrar to look into the row over the losing of affiliation of Afzal-ul-Ulama courses in eight Arabic colleges in Malappuram district.
The university on February 28 had issued a notice to these colleges saying that they don’t have permanent affiliation for the courses since 2010. After the issue was discussed at a recent Syndicate meeting, the notice has been put on hold.
The institutions were Madeenathul Uloom Arabic College, Pulikkal; Darul Uloom Arabic College, Vazhakkad; Anwarul Islam Arabic College, Kuniyil; Sullamussalam Arabic College, Areekode; KTM College of Advanced Studies, Karuvarakundu; Ansar Arabic College, Valavannur; and Anwarul Islam Women’s Arabic College, Mongam, all in Malappuram district. “It has come to the serious notice of the university that your college is conducting Afzal-ul-Ulama programmes without obtaining affiliation orders. This is reckoned as violation of provisions under university statutes. Hence you are directed to submit urgent clarification in this regard,” the notice said.
