The Association of University Teachers (AUT) has condoled the death of former Bharathiar University vice-chancellor S. Sivasubramanian.
In a release, the organisation said it was during his tenure that the University became vibrant academically and administratively. He was instrumental in strengthening the DRDO-Bharathiar University collaboration that led to the establishment of a joint research centre and added in his demise he had left a void in the academic community that was difficult to fill.
