Dear friends and colleagues,
We hope that this finds you and your families well.
The DUTA Executive met yesterday, 5.6.2021 at 3 pm to discuss the issue of VNC teachers.
As you know, the Acting Principal, Dr. Hina Nandrajog had refused to give rejoining to the 12 ad hoc teachers. These 12 teachers have been teaching in the college for the past several years. The longest serving teacher amongst these 12 has been teaching since 9.1.2014 and few others have joined in 2016 and 2018.
The DUTA has held a number of action programs, written several letters to the Delhi University and Delhi Government and has been proactively pursuing the matter with members of the Governing Body of Vivekananda College. Displacement of ad hoc teachers is not acceptable at any cost.
The 5th December, 2019 "Record of Discussion" has been a massive collective victory for DUTA and teaching community of Delhi University. The "Record of Discussion" categorically states that ad hoc teachers teaching against substantive vacant posts should be continued till permanent appointments are made. It will be terribly unfortunate if violation of the Record of Discussion is allowed or tolerated.
The Governing Body in its last meeting held on 20.5.2021, had mandated continuation of these 12 affected teachers till permanent appointments are held. It is extremely unfortuate and shocking that the Acting Principal has not implemented the decision till date.
The DUTA has demanded that Dr Hina Nandrajog should be removed from the Office.
Following this, the University of Delhi has written to the college to initiate the process of appointing the new Principal. The present Acting Principal has been in the office for more than 5 years and it is important that the college appoints a new person according to rules and regulations.
The DUTA Executive in its meeting on 5.6.2021 decided to hold a two day online action programme on 7.6.2021 and 8.6.2021 from 11 am to 1 pm, to demand immediate intervention of the Chief Minister and Vice Chancellor.
Subsequently, the DUTA also held a meeting with teachers of VNC on Sunday, 6.6.2021 to mobilise and appeal to them to remain united with DUTA as it fights the unjustified and illegitimate displacement of 12 teachers.
We request Staff Associations to mobilise members to participate in the online DUTA Dharnas on 7.6.2021 and 8.6.2021. Please circulate the poster widely. Meeting ID and passcode are given in the poster. We request Staff Associations to send their solidarity messages which will be read in the online Dharnas.
In solidarity
