The court directive came in a contempt petition filed by Dr Namita Singh, assistant professor in the CUJ's Department of Computer Sciences and IT.
Her counsel submitted that the high court had on December 30, 2015 directed that the petitioner, working on contractual basis in CUJ would not be replaced by others as contractual employee.
He said the petitioner was forced to move court after the respondents did not assign her faculty, administrative or any other work as per previous routine. Even the petitioner's name had not figured in the CUJ's new time table and she was assigned to Ramji, a technical assistant.
