The panel headed by Justice P Kalaiyarasan, the retired judge of the Madras HC, is likely to start its inquiry into the allegations of financial irregularities and abuse of power by Anna University vice-chancellor M K Surappa in a few days.
Justice Kalaiyarasan took over as inquiry officer on Monday. "Whoever has any information or evidence of financial irregularities in Anna University can directly give a complaint to the committee in writing. We will inquire about all complaints," the judge told reporters on Tuesday.
He further said the committee will conduct an inquiry about all the appointments made after Surappa assumed charge. As per the government order, the committee needs to submit a report in three months.
The government probe order came after at least three standoffs – one, the dispute over grant of IoE for the university; two, bifurcation of the university; and three, policy regarding grant of blanket pass for arrear-holders --between the government and the university in recent weeks.
