New Delhi: Nearly 33
percent of the teaching posts in Delhi's premier Jawaharlal Nehru
University are lying vacant, Minister of State for Human Resource
Development D. Purandeshwari said Friday.
In reply to a written question in the Rajya Sabha, the minister
said the University Grants Commission (UGC) has directed the JNU
for filling the vacant posts as per University Grants Commission (UGC)
regulations.
"The UGC has informed that it has directed the university vide its
communication dated 21/9/2011 to fill up the vacant teaching posts
as per the UGC's regulations," Purandeshwari said.
The minister also said that the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG's)
comment in its report for relaxing criteria for appointing
officials in the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) was dropped
after a reply from the university.
The CAG in its draft performance audit report for 2011-12
commented on relaxing the eligibility criteria for appointment of
deputy registrar, assistant registrar and other posts.
"However, on being satisfied with the reply of the university, the
CAG had dropped the comment from its final performance audit
report," the minister said.
