KSU holds protest march to MG University headquarters

Kottayam: There is a planned move under way to destroy state’s higher education sector, said KSU state president Aloysius Xavier. He was speaking while inaugurating a protest march held to MG University headquarters on Tuesday against the alleged saffronisation of the varsity administration.“CPM and BJP colluded in the senate appointments to place govt in the dock. Sangh Parivar and CPM shared the senate member positions among themselves. Existing Left syndicate and current registrar Bismi Gopalakrishnan, who was a left teachers’ organisation head at the School of Legal Thought, abetted this move. The silence of the syndicate and the registrar on the matter is suspicious,” he said.“Left service organisation functionaries are paving the way for Sangh Parivar in the university as never before. BJP functionaries coming to the university and adorning VC with a shawl is a disgraceful incident. While appointing subject expert teachers too, VC made politics alone the criterion,” he said.Xavier also said that in the coming days there would be strong agitation against the actions of the governor, who he alleged is saffronising and destroying Kerala’s higher education sector.
