New Delhi, September 17
Exhibiting zero tolerance for indiscipline and illegality by heads of central educational institutions, the HRD Ministry has recommended the sacking of acting Vice-Chancellor of Hari Singh Gaur Central University, Sagar, Madhya Pradesh.

The VC has been divested of charge after President Pranab Mukherjee signed his removal order. RS Kasana, the sacked VC, had, in an unprecedented move, recently terminated services of 22 assistant professors in the university at a time when faculty shortage is posing challenges to quality education. — TNS
