News in Bhopal HT

The Bhopal HT of date (4/4/08) published news as under-

MANIT Dean removed !!!

Institute Director gets Stern warning !!!

The controversial Dean ( Administration) Of Maulana Azad National College of Institute(MANIT) Dr Ashutosh Sharma was on Thursday removed from his post.However, he continues to hold the post of Head of Department of Architecture & Planning of institute.

Institute Director Dr K S Pandey issued an order removing Dr Sharma and appointing the Head of Energy Centre and Energy Engineering Dr Saroj Rangnekar as Dean Administration.

The Dean of Human Resource that was so far held by Dr Rangnekar has been abolished and Dean administration would henceforth look after the work pertaining to HR.
The removal of Dr Sharma from the important post was one of the recommendation of Mr Buch report.
WARNING TO DIRECTOR: The development came just a day after director Dr K S Pandey had meeting with the secertary of the MHRD Mr.R P Agrawal. The Director had been summoned to New Delhi by the Secretary in the context of the implementation of Mr.Buch Committee report. Sources said that the director was warned on the issue and asked to work as per the rules.He was also asked to put the house in order and ensure that no further irregularities took place. The Secretary is said to have told the director that ministry would take action upon the report by the Chairman within fortnight.

Recently,MHRD Minister Mr. Arjun Singh had told media persons in Bhopal that the ministry had accepted the recommendations of Buch Committee in Toto.

Dr. Sharma along with the students' council advisor of the head of training and placement cell Dr Aruna Saxena and assistant professor Dr Abhay Sharma were clearly mentioned in the Buch committee report as being involved in irregular appointment.

Chairman Mr A N Singh had in November2007 ordered the director to remove all these three persons from all important administrative posts , including that of Head of department. The removal of Dr Sharma from post of Dean administration is thus only partial implementation of the directives. The Chairman had also directed posting of senior most professors to the post of Dean (Administration) while Dr. Rangnekar is behind at least half dozen faculty members in seniority list, institute sources said.
