The Madras High Court has instructed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to probe a complaint of misappropriation of funds to the tune of ₹2.25 crore by authorities of Pondicherry University (PU).
Disposing of a petition filed by the president of the Democratic Youth Federation of India, A. Anand, Justice G. Jayachandran said, “the CBI is requested to register the complaint and proceed with the investigation.”
Mr. Anand had approached the High Court after the CBI took time to act upon his complaint of misappropriation of funds sanctioned by the Centre to the Human Resources Development Centre (HRDC) at the PU, for conducting orientation courses and refresher programmes for the teaching and non-teaching staff of the college.
