AGARTALA, January 29 (TNN): Tripura University on Saturday cancelled the interviews for the posts of associate professors and professors in four departments after more than 50 teaching faculties gheraoed the vice-chancellor A K Ghosh, registrar O S Adhikari, deans and other top officials of the university on Friday. The teachers alleged that there was nepotism in the screening process and the VC had called under-qualified candidates. "The recruitment committee headed by the VC had turned down applications of genuine candidates without citing any reason," they said, adding that earlier the VC had recruited a librarian, deputy librarian and finance officer through unfair means. "We demand the resignation of the VC and an enquiry into each and every recruitment, the screening process, purchase and tenders of the university during the tenure of Ghosh," the faculty members said.
