Complaint against Amt VC, pro VC

Amravati: Even as Sant Gadge Baba Amravati University is gearing up for its 37th convocation on Saturday, a complaint has been lodged against its vice-chancellor and pro vice-chancellor demanding registration of criminal offences against them for causing Rs72 lakh loss to the varsity.
The complainant Dinesh Suryavanshi, former member of the varsity’s management council, alleged that the VC Murlidhar Chandekar and pro VC RS Jaipurkar had awarded a contract illegally to a local company of their favour.
Suryavanshi claimed the VC and the pro VC misused their powers to favour city’s Dot Com Infotech Pvt Ltd for the installation of web-based integrated university management system (WIUMS) at a cost of Rs72 lakh.
Suryavanshi also demanded registration of criminal offences against Chandekar for allegedly cheating the search committee in getting shortlisted for the appointment as VC and then getting selected on the strength of false information.
