Aligarh: Aligarh Muslim University Vice Chancellor Prof. P.K. Abdul Azis has postponed the meeting of Executive Council scheduled to be held on 17th September 2011 in New Delhi. The decision was taken at a meeting of the local members of Executive Council presided over by the VC here on 15th September.
“The members of the Executive Council, Prof. M. Ashraf Malik, Principal, J. N. Medical College and Prof. Sibghatullah Farooqi, Dean, Faculty of Commerce had informed the AMU Vice Chancellor in writing that they were unable to attend the slated meeting of Executive Council to be held in Delhi as it lacked the elected representation of teaching community of the University. The situation thus arisen, compelled the University to postpone the meeting as the total number of EC members presently is 16 which would not allow to meet the quorum requirement if the above two members did not attend the meeting,” said Zeeshan Ahmad, Assistant Public Relations Officer, AMU.
The meeting also decided to urge Prof. Abu Sufyan Zilli, Chairman, Department of Psychology and Chief Election Officer to initiate the election process at the earliest to conduct the election for membership of EC from teaching community. The EC members present in the meeting also decided to urge the Visitor to allow the University to hold the Court meeting so that the election of six members of EC out of the University Court may also be completed so that they could also take part in the process of the selection of the new Vice Chancellor, Ahmed informed.
