| For 2nd consecutive year, Omar stays away from meeting of JU Council | | Is Pro Chancellor neglecting Universities of Jammu? | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Apr 23: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's absence from the second consecutive meeting of Jammu University's Council in two years has given strength to the allegations that he had been deliberately neglecting the Universities of Jammu region in general and the University of Jammu in particular.
Chief Minister's presence in the meetings of the Councils of the Universities of the State as the Pro Chancellor is considered indispensable as Councils are the highest decision making bodies of the Universities and the CM as the pro chancellor can take many vital decisions during these meetings which have direct bearing on thousands of students across the region. Chief Minister was conspicuous by his absence from the meeting that was chaired by the Chancellor as he had kept off the meeting of the apex body in the last year also. Insiders then believed that the Chief Minister had stayed away from the meeting because of his personal differences with Prof. Varun Sahni, the then Vice Chancellor of the University of Jammu.
Omar's absence in today's meeting has particularly raised many an eyebrows because while he avoided the meeting of the JU council for the second consecutive year, he was present in both the Council meetings of the Kashmir University, justifying accusations of discrimination against Jammu region.
The meeting of the JU council which was chaired by the Chancellor, Governor NN Vohra, was attended by Prof. Talat Ahmad, Vice Chancellor, University of Kashmir; Prof. Vinayshil Gautam; Prof. R.P. Tandon; M.I. Khandey, Principal Secretary, Finance; Navin Kumar Choudhary, Principal Secretary to the Governor; Tanveer Jehan, Commissioner Secretary, Higher Education, and Prof. Naresh Padha, Registrar, University of Jammu. |
