Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan has sought an explanation from P. Raveendran, Vice-Chancellor, University of Calicut, over a complaint seeking recovery of money from officials for the losses incurred to the institution due to “faulty recruitment” of faculty members between 2019 and 2022.
The complaint was filed by Joshin Joseph, one of the applicants, and a differently-abled person. The university had appointed 56 assistant professors, 16 associate professors, and 13 professors as per the job notification issued in 2019. However, it was later alleged that reservation norms were flouted. After another applicant legally challenged the recruitment process, the Kerala HC and the SC found merit in the allegation.
