Madras University suspends Senate polls; Academic Council to meet on September 24

The Registrar of the University of Madras has informed that the election of 10 Senate members and two “Other Members” slated for Saturday has been “adjourned sine die due to administrative reasons.”

The biannual meeting of the Academic Council is being held on Saturday.

A circular informed that the usual practice is to hold the election to the Syndicate and the Senate from among members of the Academic Council simultaneously and on the same day. However, a Madras High Court injunction on Wednesday restrained the university from holding the Syndicate election.
