The Hindu
With the judgement coming in his favour the CUK would have to pay approximately ₹1.3 crore towards his salary, S. Gopinath said.
Three years of struggle to get justice ended with a happy note for S. Gopinath, who was removed from service while he was serving as the joint registrar in the Central University of Kerala (CUK). On Saturday, he celebrated Onam with his family in Kasaragod with joy and with grandeur as the long waged legal battle ended with Kerala High court quashing the charges levelled against him by the CUK and ordered the university to clear all the consequential benefits, arrears of salary and other service benefits within a period of three months. Mr. Gopinath, was removed from the service after it was alleged that he was instrumental in taking on rent a building to house the boys hostel of the CUK agreeing to pay a monthly rental of ₹75,000 per month, as well as an advance equivalent to three months, rent at ₹75,000 per month to the building owner without due sanction from the Vice-Chancellor or the joint registrar. This allegedly cost the university a loss of ₹3.5 lakh during 2013-14.
