Delhi University teachers assure court on college results
By IANSThursday, May 20, 2010
NEW DELHI - The Delhi University Teachers’ Association (DUTA) Thursday informed the Delhi High Court that internal assessment results in 17 colleges will be declared Friday after its members’ meeting with Vice Chancellor Deepak Pental.
DUTA’s counsel informed Justice Sunil Gaur that after the meeting with Pental, the results will be declared Friday evening.
The court was hearing the Delhi University’s plea, alleging DUTA’s non-cooperation in implementation of the proposed semester system at the undergraduate level from the ensuing academic session.
Blaming Pental for not discussing the feasibility and the desirability of the semester system at the university’s academic council (AC), the teachers from most of the affiliated colleges, at the behest of DUTA, did not submit their internal assessments to their respective principals. The deadline was April 21.
Left with no option, the university moved the court against DUTA.
