University suspends Assistant Professor

THANJAVUR, JUNE 15, 2019 00:00 IST

The Tamil University has suspended an Assistant Professor for alleged misbehaviour with girl students during an examination at an extension centre and prompting students to bribe him for indulging in malpractices.

Based on a complaint received from the Distant Education Extension Centre, Ramanathapuram, that the Assistant Professor, Muthaiyan, who was deputed by the university as invigilator for the B.Ed. Examination held from May 15 to 26 at a private college at Ramanathapuram, had encouraged the students and officials at the Extension Centre to indulge in malpractices during the examination by bribing him, Vice-Chancellor G. Balasubramanian had constituted a committee to hold an inquiry.

The committee’s report had reportedly determined genuineness in the complaint. Mr. Muthaiyan had demanded Rs. 5,000 each from 200 students at the centre. When his demand was ignored, he allegedly misbehaved with girl students and distracted the concentration of other students while supervising. A detailed inquiry will follow, sources said.
