Hyderabad, December 26: As the Osmania University vice chancellor’s tenure nears to an end, senior professors are straining every nerve to get the honorable post of Vice Chancellor of a university famous not only in India but at global level. The news going the rounds for the last one week that government proposes former Director General of Police Mr. Saranjeet Sen to replace present Vice Chancellor Tirupati Rao. The news spread like a wildfire not only among professors but among Pro Telangana political leaders as well.
Speculations are rife over government’s attempt to restrain the movement by appointing an IPS officer as OU vice chancellor in anticipation of Osmania University being transformed into Telangana movement hub after December 31.
However in view of present Vice Chancellor Prof. Tirupati Rao’s tenure coming to an end on febraury 17, 2011, some professors of the University have started exercising influences to obtain the post.
This time governor will play an important role in the appointment of Vice chancellor of Osmania University.
It would not be out of place to mention that atleast 10 years of experience as professor is compulsory for the post of Vice Chancellor therefore appointment of an IAS or IPS would be against UGC norms.
