KTU too rejects Governor’s diktat to nominate representative to V-C selection panel

APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University (KTU) has become the third State-run university to defy Governor Arif Mohammed Khan’s ultimatum to nominate a representative to the search-cum-selection committee to appoint its next Vice-Chancellor.

The decision to reject the directive was taken by the KTU’s Board of Governors (BoG) which met here on Monday to deliberate the issue, among others.

Notably, the meeting was chaired by Vice-Chancellor in-charge Saji Gopinath, whose future at the helm of Digital University Kerala hangs in the balance following a hearing conducted by Governor and Chancellor Arif Mohammed Khan two days ago.
