Aligarh: President Pratibha Patil today directed the Aligarh Muslim University to put
the crucial meeting of the AMU Court on December 19 in abeyance.
A group of current and former Members of Parliament had earlier
appealed to Prathiba Patil, as the Visitor of the University, to
postpone the scheduled meeting of the court.
The President also has issued a notice to the University under
Section 13 of the AMU Act to explain as to how this crucial
meeting of the Court was being held. The meeting would elect the
university's next Chancellor, Pro-Chancellor, Treasurer and six
members of the University executive council.
The group had alleged that vice-chancellor P K Abdul Azis had
deliberately scheduled the meeting on December 19, when a large
number of the members will be attending the session of All India
Congress Committee, to influence elections.
