Kerala Agricultural University V-C appointment reflection of UDF-BJP deal: employees’ association

CUEO, a union of university employees in Kerala, alleges that the appointment of Sajitha Rani as Vice-Chancellor of Kerala Agricultural University is part of an understanding between the UDF government and the BJP. The confederation claims this violates the university's act by bypassing consultation with the Pro-Chancellor, who is the Agriculture Minister. They accuse the UDF government of surrendering higher education to a "saffronisation agenda" and plan protests against the alleged political arrangement.
