Delhi University moves court against teachers
By IANSFriday, June 25, 2010
NEW DELHI - Delhi University (DU) Friday again approached the Delhi High Court alleging that teachers were not cooperating in the admission process.
The uiverstiy alleged that despite the court’s order, teachers are not helping the university staff in the ongoing admission process.
On this, Justice M.C. Garg asked the Delhi University Teachers’ Association (DUTA) to file their response by July 15 and cooperate in the admissions.
DUTA on the other hand stated that since the admission work is almost complete and teachers have no role left, they had asked the teachers to go out for vacations.
Earlier this week, the court had asked DUTA to cooperate in the admission process and barred them from obstructing it in any manner.
“Keeping in mind the career of the large number of students, it is directed that DUTA will cooperate in the admission process,” the court had then said.
University authorities and teachers have been engaged in a tussle over the past many months over the university’s hasty plans to implement the semester system.
The university petition had also sought a ban on all forms of protests by teachers.
