After facing the wrath of the Madras high court for poor infrastructure in government law colleges in the state, Tamil Nadu Dr Ambedkar Law University has informed the court that principals would be appointed to 10 law colleges soon.
Of the186 vacancies in the posts of assistant professors, 96 were filled through Teachers Recruitment Board (TRB). This apart, salary of guest lecturers has been enhanced from ₹15,000 to ₹30,000 per month from February 1, the university told the court. The submissions were made on a batch of pleas moved by students and advocates alleging poor infrastructure in almost all government law colleges in the state.
When the pleas came up for hearing on Wednesday, a division bench of Justice N Kirubakaran and Justice V Parthiban pointed out that every year almost 4 lakh students graduated from more than 1,600 law colleges in the country, and highlighted the urgent need to find a solution to provide employment for all of them. The Bar Council and the legal fraternity should come out with a solution, the bench added.
As to the present infrastructure in government law colleges, the bench said, “The school of excellence had 2,300 students, but only 30 teachers. Without proper infrastructure and teaching staff there is no point in continuing the courses.”
When advocates pointed out the practical difficulty of the two colleges bifurcated out of the Dr Ambedkar Government Law College, Chennai, having the same name, the judges suggested that one of the colleges be renamed as Kakkan Law College or after any other leader.
