The law professor is wrong. How Kerala background of the vice-chancellor make him incompetent to administer AMU? Kerala has much higher literacy rate than North India and the Keralites are more competent than the North Indians. What do you mean by popular teachers? Do they mean by popular academicians or the teachers involved more in the politics than education. VC should not listen to the popular politician teachers but the real academicians. Politicians have always been a source of problems on the campus.
It is a wise decision to relocate the students and do not allow to form the regional groups. Regionalism has always been a stumbling block to learn the true traditions of the University. I have seen many students whose language did not change at all because they stayed with the students of their village, city or the state through out their stay at AMU. On the otherhand, their spoken language changed quickly within few months softening the pronunciation when they stayed with the students with different regions or state.
The boys who were involved in looting and arson should be penalized. I have read the letter that gave every implicated student 15 weeks to appeal the University decision. There should be no mercy to troble makers.
The Vice-Chancellor should device a system adopted by the vice Chancellor, Prof Khaliq Ahmad Nizami, in 1973 to save the student's academic year.
