The Rajiv Gandhi University of Knowledge Technologies (Amendment) Act, 2016
The Rajiv Gandhi University of Knowledge Technologies (Amendment) Act, 2016
This Act amends the Rajiv Gandhi University of Knowledge Technologies Act, 2008, to centralize administrative control within the State Government. It specifically modifies how key university officials are appointed. The Chancellor is now appointed directly by the Government, and the Government replaces the Governing Council in specific decision-making roles. Furthermore, the Act establishes a new Search Committee process for selecting the Vice-Chancellor, requiring a panel of three candidates to be submitted to the Government for final selection. These changes ensure greater state oversight in the leadership and governance of the university, impacting how the institution functions and selects its top administrators.
