Commenting on the V-C's allegation of misbehavior, Dhindsa said, "I had questioned some of the decisions taken by the V-C. If he had felt bad then he should have questioned me then and there. He preferred to write a letter on the issue after the meeting. As a member of the board, I have the right to question him. But by not calling a meeting, the V-C is trying to brush his wrong doings under the carpet." Dhindsa at the last BoM meeting had objected to the salary quotient in the university budget that was passed in the meeting. It's important to note that university had shown salary quotient to be 89 per cent.
Even the appointment on the post of the Assistant Director Research had been a bone of contention between the V-C and the board members.
University spokesperson Jagtar Singh Dhiman said, "I could not talk to the V-C on the issue but Registrar Dr R K Mahey has informed that meeting could not be called earlier as the election code of conduct was in force and later admission process kept the university authorities busy." Dhiman added that as members of the board are a diverse group, the meeting could be called only when a majority of the members are free.
