Kochi/Thiruvananthapuram: The Kerala HC on Monday quashed the appointment of the vice-chancellor of Kerala University of Fisheries and Ocean Studies (KUFOS), saying the appointment was made in violation of UGC norms.
The order, which apparently vindicates Governor Arif Mohammed Khan’s move seeking resignation of 11 VCs in the state over the violation, is a blow to the Left government which has been opposing him on the issue.
A bench of Chief Justice S Manikumar and Justice Shaji P Chaly said the selection of K Riji John as the VC of KUFOS cannot, what the judges said, be sustained under law as it overlooks the UGC regulations of 2018 regarding appointment of VCs.
