Early Times Report
Jammu, Aug 2: Although the Jammu University administration has been tough against political activities on campus, yet it has failed to take cognizance of a Sr faculty member holding chair of an Assistant Professor of Directorate of Distance Education (DDE), who is running the operations of a political party from his office.
A three member core committee of the prominent political party has overtly been making and executing plans, misusing Right to Information (RTI) to fulfill their nefarious designs. Sources in varsity administration revealed that an Assistant Professor, who was also engaged putting aside the norms, has given full authority to the student wing leader of the party to use property of varsity to further their interests.
"The RTI has become a new tool of this leader, who has been filing dozens of applications on monthly basis settling most of them through shady deeds" sources informed.
Officials in VC secretariat regretted that this modus operandi of the self-proclaimed whistleblower, of making public some RTI replies and hiding others, has ostensibly exposed the mala-fide intensions of the political party and has brought disrepute to the progressive RTI Act.
"A three member core committee headed by a political leader of disrepute , the JU Assistant Professor of DDE and retired bureaucrat, which has been given the charge by party high command to create a base in University and also collect money for themselves and party by using RTI", sources said, adding that more than 90 percent RTI applications in JU are finalized by this core committee and filed in the names and addresses of few selected students, who are members of four student organizations.
Sources further said that the self-proclaimed leader of the party in question had never raised any voice for the cause of students or scholars but has been using the student unions for blackmailing and getting other benefits like jobs and for this some of the varsity members have also been extending full support in blackmailing.
"Though Varsity administration is fully aware of the political party's office working from DDE and regular entry of self-proclaimed whistleblower along with bureaucrat but administration hesitate to initiate any action against the illegal entry of outsiders", sources said, adding that even some members of security guards were also hand in glove with this group. |
