One and a half years after the sacking of Pondicherry University V-C Chandra Krishnamurthy in June last year for allegedly committing academic fraud, HRD Ministry has set up a search-cum-selection committee to appoint the next Vice-Chancellor. The President, who is Visitor of all central universities, was said to be not pleased with the ministry's list of suggestions for appointing his representative on the search-cum-selection committee. The file was sent back and the President's nominee was approved by his office only after the second list of suggestions was sent by the HRD Ministry. The three-member panel is learnt to have Himachal University V-C Kuldip Chand Agnihotri and Indira Gandhi National Tribal University V-C TV Kattimani as members.
