Removal of Vice-Chancellor

Removal of the Vice-Chancellor—

1. (1) If at any time and after such enquiry as may be considered necessary, it appears to the Chancellor that the Vice-Chancellor: -
   • (i) has failed to discharge any duty imposed upon him, by or under this Act, the Rules; and Statutes, or
   • (ii) has acted in a manner prejudicial to the interests of the University, or
   • (iii) has been incapable of managing the affairs of the University.

2. (2) No order under Sub-Section-1 shall be passed unless a notice stating the specific grounds on which such action is proposed has been served and a reasonable opportunity to show cause against the proposed order has been given to the Vice-Chancellor.
3. (3) On and from the date specified in Sub-Section-1, it shall be deemed that Vice-Chancellor has resigned his post and office of the Vice-Chancellor shall be deemed vacant.
