Mysuru: An assistant professor with the University of Mysore staged a protest for an hour in front of the vice-chancellor’s office on Monday alleging that her probationary period has not been declared complete.

N Mamatha of the department of mass communication and journalism said that the issue has been withheld since one-and-half years. She withdrew the protest after vice chancellor G Hemantha Kumar issued the declaration of satisfactory completion of her probationary period.


Research scholar joined Mamatha’s one-hour protest which started at 11.30am. Speaking to TOI, Mamatha alleged that she has been writing to the university authorities since August 2017. “But there was no response. So, I decided to raise the issue by staging a dharna,” she said.


Mamatha said that to her shock, the order was ready five months ago. Hemantha Kumar confirmed that the order was ready and only its release was pending. “We arranged the order copy immediately. The issue has been resolved,” he said.
