Baisoya’s papers fake, not issued by us: TN varsity

New Delhi:05.10.2018

Thiruvalluvar University has written to the Tamil Nadu government confirming the allegations of fake certificate against DUSU president Ankiv Baisoya.

K Murugan, vice-chancellor of Thiruvalluvar University, confirmed the same to TOI on Thursday, saying the letter was sent on Wednesday after the TN government had asked for a response on the matter.

Following the election of ABVP’s Baisoya in September, the Congress-backed NSUI alleged around three weeks ago that the certificates submitted during his admission to the Buddhist studies department were fake. However, DU is yet to make any official statement on the matter.

In the letter to the principal secretary of the TN higher education department, the registrar said an official verification of records had found the certificate to be fake. “I hereby submit that Mr Ankiv Baisoya has not enrolled either in our university or in any of our constituent or affiliated colleges and is not our student at all,” he stated in the letter. “The certificate he has produced is fake and not from our university. The controller of examination has issued a letter stating that the certificate is not genuine after verification of records of the controller of examination office.”

Following the development, NSUI Delhi president Akshay Lakra said, “The letter clearly states that the document submitted by Baisoya was fake. The head of the department, K T S Sarao, is trying to save Baisoya as he is ABVP’s candidate. Even after 15 days of submitting our complaint to DU, they have failed to take any action against him. NSUI is left with no other option but to move court.”

Raising doubts over legality of the letter, ABVP claimed, “There are no stamps on the letter, so we are not sure if the letter is even real.” Its media convener, Monica Chaudhary, said they were waiting for DU to complete its investigation and give its assessment of the case.
