DMK Treasurer and Leader of Opposition MK Stalin has written a letter to the Tamil Nadu Governor Vidyasagar Rao demanding the removal of Vice Chancellors of ten state universities. The Vice Chancellors met late Chief Minister Jayalalithaa’s aide Sasikala Natarajan at Poes Garden in Chennai.
He stated that their meeting with Sasikala, who holds no official position, is “unethical, unwarranted and unconstitutional” and has breached the rules of appointment, conduct and regulations attached to their post.
In his letter written to the governor, Stalin requested that appropriate action be taken to “effectively prevent the politicisation of the office of the Vice Chancellors and belittling the dignity of the autonomous status of the universities of the state”.
