The junior faculty member was not given any class of Functional English as per Time-Table and for not having any specialization in the subject. "On 28th of August, whole time table was changed and two classes were given to junior faculty members, who in turn took his classes and got the Functional English lab closed, despite the fact that some other classes were to be taken in the lab.
He has further alleged that as he went to took class of Semester-III (NCBCS) in 8th period, the junior faculty member verbally abused and used derogatory language against the students as well as him in full public glare.
"The usage of unparliamentarily language was taken up with Principal as well as other faculty members, but the junior faculty member against used derogatory language and refused to allow usage of Functional English lab-a college property-made personal property by junior faculty", the application reads, adding that despite taking issue with Principal, he didn't do anything and when the matter was taken up with the office of Commissioner Secretary and on their instructions, the Principal instruction him to take care of department but refused to instruct the junior faculty to hand over assessment records as well as keys of Functional English lab.
