The High Court of Karnataka has declined to quash the criminal case registered against a 76-year-old former Vice-Chancellor of Karnataka State Open University (KSOU) for alleged irregularities in tie-ups with private institutions. It said there was “prima facie material to investigate the matter”. Justice H.P. Sandesh passed the order while dismissing a petition filed by K. Sudha Rao, who was Vice-Chancellor of KSOU during 2003-2007. The Mysuru city police had registered an FIR against the petitioner and several other former Vice-Chancellors and various private institutions. The FIR was based on a complaint lodged by the Registrar of KSOU on November 20, 2019, over the illegal signing of MoUs with private institutions beyond the territory of Karnataka.More Related News
