JNU Teachers Stand Against Alleged Administrative Irregularities

The Jawaharlal Nehru University Teachers' Association (JNUTA) has raised concerns about the extension of probation periods and the appointment of a new rector, which they claim violates university rules. They also criticized the establishment of a committee perceived as undermining academic autonomy and CAS promotion practices.

The Jawaharlal Nehru University Teachers' Association (JNUTA) has raised serious allegations against the administration, claiming that several newly-appointed faculty have had their probation unfairly extended.

The association further criticized the appointment of Rector I, arguing it was executed in breach of established seniority rules, specifically Ordinance 5, Clause 4.

These actions have drawn condemnation from JNUTA, who argue they undermine the integrity of JNU and call for immediate rollback of these decisions.
