CHENNAI: The ongoing conflict between Tamil Nadu's governor and government over search committees in state universities of which the Governor is the Chancellor escalated on Wednesday.
Governor R N Ravi had asked the state government to recall its notification dated December 9 over a search committee constituted for the post of vice chancellor for Annamalai University saying that since it does not include a nominee from UGC and it violates directions of the Supreme Court.
In response Tamil Nadu's higher education minister Govi Chezhian said they have followed rules per the concerned laws of the state universities.
There is a tug of war between the two over including a UGC nominee in the search committees to finalise a vice-chancellor.
Though the universities are funded by the state government, the Governor, as the chancellor, gets to appoint the VCs.
