Gandhi Memorial National (PG) College will soon advertise posts for assistant professor to overcome shortage of regular staff.

Sources say 28 of the 55 sanctioned posts of assistant professor in the college have been lying vacant for years. Surprisingly, regular professors are not being hired even though it is an aided college and the Haryana government pays 95 per cent of the grant towards the staff salary.

A professor says: “Poor policies adopted by the earlier management and staff shortage have led to a drastic drop in the quality of education in this once prestigious college. The situation has come to such a pass that students are getting reappear even in the Hindi subject. The college has become students’ last choice for admission in Ambala”.

However, the new management has begun the process of filling vacant posts. College Principal RP Singh says the roster for vacant posts is almost ready and a request letter will soon be sent to the Department of Higher Education for permission to advertising posts.

MP Gupta, new president of the GMN College Management Society, says: “Posts will be filled soon and we will run the college according to the rules of the government and the university”.

A Panchkula resident had filed a complaint at the Chief Minister's window in April, accusing the previous college management of corrupt practices and siphoning of money, besides trying to take over college property worth crores. Ambala Cantonment SDM Subhash Sihag is probing the charges.
