The State government has favoured the withdrawal of the controversial recruitment notification issued by Keladi Shivappa Nayaka University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences (KSNUAHS) in Shivamogga in 2019.
The government filed an affidavit, making it clear that the roster of reservations should be fixed, considering each department as a unit, with the Karnataka High Court on October 6. This move has left 109 assistant professors recruited by the university in worry, while the applicants who have been opposing the notification have welcomed the government’s decision.
