Himachal Pradesh High Court Stays University Order on Vice Chancellor Duties Assignment
The Himachal Pradesh High Court has stayed a university order assigning Vice Chancellor duties during his foreign tour to the dean and registrar instead of Pro Vice Chancellor Rajinder Verma. Verma, whose three-year term began in June 2023, continues to hold office as no successor has been appointed. The court noted the university was not following procedures requiring matters to be routed through Verma and allowed him to continue performing his duties until a new appointment is made. The case will be heard again on November 4.
