The Hindu
‘Notice issued to Chancellor, not Arif Mohammed Khan’
Insisting that he had ceased to discharge the responsibilities of the Chancellor of State Universities on December 8, Governor Arif Mohammed Khan said on Wednesday that the notice served by the Kerala High Court on the reappointment of Kannur University Vice Chancellor has been forwarded to the government.
Speaking to mediapersons on the sidelines of a function here, Mr. Khan reiterated he did not deal with university matters any longer and that the notice had been issued “to the Chancellor and not Arif Mohammed Khan”.
The High Court had sought the response of the Chancellor, who is the first respondent, on a plea that challenged the appointment of Gopinath Ravindran as Kannur University Vice Chancellor.
