First time ever local politicians (not holding any
constitutional posts like MP/MLA) were
invited by the PEC authorities during an academic function.
Chandigarh BJP President and Area Councillor from Ward-12 were
invited at the inauguration of the new academic block on May 20, 2016. See the

To save the skin of Prof. Manoj Kumar Arora who had been appointed unlawfully as the Director PEC University of
Technology without following the proper
procedure. Following were the major flaws:-
·
Wide publicity for the post was not given
through advertisement. It was all hush-hush affair.
·
Second interaction meeting was held on May 2,
2013, “by secretly calling some candidates”.
Prof. Pradeep Kumar Garg, a professor at Civil Engineering Department at IIT Roorkee who had applied for the same post too was not called. No reasons were given.

Prof Pradeep Kumar Garg was incidentally the
teacher of the Dr. Manoj Arora during the latter’s
M.Tech.
Feeling
aggrieved Prof P K Garg filed a the writ petition in Punjab & Haryana High
Court. The court was to deliver the judgment on 20 May 2016. Prof Manoj Arora
knew very well that he would lose the case. The only hope for him was to take
the help of the local; politicians and the administrators.

Director after losing the case in the High Court should have stepped down. But Prof Manoj Arora played the cards well. With the support of the Chandigarh Administration and the backing of the BJP, he filed an appeal in the High Court. As was expected, the High Court ordered quashing his appointment on 31 May 2016.

Now the case is pending and will take few years to be decided. By that time, Dr. Manoj Arora would have completed his tenure of 5 years.
Very sad state of affairs at the PEC University of Technology!
Why is it the fault of Manoj Arora that people who appointed him did not follow the process?
ReplyDeleteConsider this also: Just because Prof A taught Prof B does not and should not require that Prof B cannot do better than Prof A. Prof Garg may be senior, he may have taught Manoj Arora, BUT Manoj may have presented a better vision for the College/University.
