Speed up VCs appointment: KCR

Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has asked Chief Secretary Somesh Kumar and other senior officials to speed up the process of appointing Vice-Chancellors to universities in the State.

At a meeting to discuss vacancies in the post of Vice-Chancellor to a majority of universities, Mr. Rao was informed that the search committees to fill up the vacancies were constituted. Their work was hampered by COVID pandemic.
