Web Desk(Tvm)Updated: Thursday Dec 22, 2022

Kochi  It is  setback for Governor Arif Muhammad Khan once again, with the Division Bench of High Court on Thursday staying  Justice Devan Ramachandran’s ruling  asking to nominate a Senate representative to the Search and Selection Committee  for appointment of  Kerala University Vice-Chancellor.

Justice Devan Ramachandran had also ruled that, if  nothing was done in the stipulated period, the Governor who is also the University Chancellor, can take his own decision.  That direction too has now been suspended in  the Division Bench’s interim ruling.

The Division Bench comprised Chief Justice S Manikumar and Justice Shaji P Chali  that  heard the appeal filed by four Senate members seeking cancellation of the Single Bench verdict.
