Trichy: Regional joint director of collegiate education (RJDCE) S Usha was sent on forced leave on Friday following complaints of physically assaulting her subordinates. Director of collegiate education (DCE) in-charge C Jothi Venkateswaran passed the order based on written complaints from employees in this regard.
On Thursday, two women employees had accused Usha of physically assaulting them after finding fault with their work. One of them, a stenographer in the office, was slapped by her on her back for making a spelling mistake. The woman was so traumatised that she had to be admitted to hospital after the incident. The other woman alleged that she was slapped by Usha when she requested her to process a file that had come from one of the aided colleges in the city.
Members of ACTA protested in front of the RJDCE office on Friday against the incidents demanding that the higher education secretary sack Usha. ACTA general secretary S Sahaya Sathish said Usha is incapable of continuing as RJDCE as only people who lose their mental balance can physically assault subordinates. She had insulted many teaching staff of aided colleges in the past. “A mere forced leave or transfer to other regional joint director office will make the staff in that office vulnerable to such attacks. Therefore, we seek her termination from service,” said Sathish.
