AN APPEAL TO HON’BLE MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT
Respected Sir/Madam,
The AMU Teachers’ Association has been on Dharna and Relay Hunger Strike for the last two weeks demanding the removal of the Vice-Chancellor of AMU, Prof. P.K. Abdul Azis, for his financial misdeeds, incompetence, anti-university policies and scant regard for law. Memoranda were submitted to the Hon’ble President of India, The Prime Minister, The Minister of HRD and Smt. Sonia Gandhi, Chairperson, UPA on May 6, 2011 giving details of his activities, but nothing has been done till date. From today two senior teachers have gone on Indefinite Hunger Strike pressing his removal under the banner of AMU Anti-Corruption Forum.
VC’s latest misadventure is the closing down of AMU sine die on April 29, 2011 after a group clash on the campus which could have easily been controlled if the University functionaries were not playing favourites. This is the third sine-die in the last four years. This closure at the time when examinations were about to end and entrance examinations were going on has jeopardized the career of thousands of students. Moreover, the totally baseless and malicious attempt to justify their inept administration by alleging the presence of arms at the University campus (later found baseless) has tarnished the image of AMU. 300 research scholars requested their entry into their hostels but the VC denied it despite declaring the opening of the AMU.
He has been found guilty of financial mismanagement and administrative lapses by the Government of Kerala, CAG, and the Inquiry Committee set up by the President of India. We, therefore, demand that Prof. P.K. Abdul Azis be immediately sacked from the Vice-Chancellorship of AMU.
Sincerely yours,
(S. Mustafa Zaidi)
