Sudhakar advised presspersons on Sunday that he would take up the matter [in his capacity as Pro-Chancellor] with the Governor and the Chief Minister. “I did not know about the appointment. In 26 years, this is the first time that a private college principal has been appointed as the Vice-Chancellor, even if interim,” stated Dr. Sudhakar. “As Pro-Chancellor, I wrote to the Governor seeking to meet him two or three weeks ago. Perhaps because of COVID-19, he is not meeting anyone.”
He added that there isn’t a personal school member within the college. “It is the biggest health university in the country with over 2 lakh students. I will raise whatever matter has to be raised with the Governor and the Chief Minister,” he stated.
