Mumbai: Maharashtra Legislative Council was adjourned twice today after the Opposition strongly demanded suspension of Mumbai University's Vice-Chancellor Rajan Welukar for a series of good-ups.
Soon after the debate on the Budget got over, Shiv Senas Deepak Sawant through point of order apprised the House about blunders committed by the university recently including leaking of a paper in the university exam.
"Some students did not receive hall tickets on time, some students complained of change in examination centres without intimation. Besides, there was a paper leak," he lamented.
Demanding immediate suspension of Welukar, Opposition MLCs Vinod Tawade, Diwakar Raote, Ramdas Kadam, Neelam Gorhe among others went to the well of the House and shouted slogans vidyapeeth bachao, Welukar hatao(Save the University and sack Welukar).
The Opposition MLCs also demanded the Higher and Technical Education Minister Rajesh Tope to make the announcement of Welukars suspension today itself, leading to adjournment of the House twice.
The proceedings of the House began after Tope assured the House that the sentiments of the legislators would be conveyed to the Governor K Sankarnarayan who is also the Chancellor of the Universities.
