A meeting of the General Council of Kerala Agricultural University (KAU) convened on February 9 (Friday) to nominate a representative to the search-cum-selection committee to appoint the next Vice-Chancellor was adjourned after several members abstained from the meeting.
The meeting of the university’s supreme body was called on the basis of the ultimatum issued by Governor Arif Mohammed Khan two weeks ago to nominate its representative to the committee within a month.
B. Ashok, who has been holding the post of Vice-Chancellor in-charge since March last, chaired the meeting that was attended by a little over 10 people, the quorum required to convene a meeting of the statutory body.
