Bombay HC to clarify in PIL on Mumbai varsity VC

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 26 Februari 2014 | 22.23

MUMBAI: Bombay high court will clarify today if petitions challenging the appointment of Mumbai University vice chancellor Rajan Welukar will be heard afresh or will be restricted to a single question on his qualifications.

A bench headed by chief justice Mohit Shah will decide the issue as it had referred the matter to a new division bench of Justice P V Hardas and Justice A S Gadkari. The reference was on whether Welukar fulfils an essential criteria - with regard to post Ph D publication of five research articles in international journals which are referred for studies in higher education. Two public interest litigation were filed by Nitin Deshpande and V G Patil and a petition by A D Sawant, a contender.

When Patil's advocate Pankaj Kowli tried to submit additional grounds for challenge, it was objected to by advocate general Darius Khambata and Welukar's senior counsel Rafiq Dada saying the reference is limited.

Kowli said there is a need for a clarification of the May 2012 order by which the reference was made, whether the new bench should hear only the points referred to or all points in the petition and new points of facts sought to be raised now in respect of Welukar's qualifications.

The new points are that Welukar's first appointment was on September 7, 1985 while he represented in his CV that he is working since 1983 without specifying the date of appointment. In view of this, he does not have essential experience of 15 years of teaching,'' argued Kowli.

Similarly , Welukar also does not hold the rank of a professor which is a qualifying criteria. Also, that as his appointment as assistant lecturer/teacher was not made through Maharashtra Public Service Commission and not approved by the VC under Maharashtra Universities Act, he could not be considered for promotion,'' The matter is adjourned to February 27, 2014 for the clarification to be obtained.
