MeCAW assures full cooperation to new Vice-Chancellor of NEHU

SHILLONG: The Meghalaya Confederation for Academic Welfare (MeCAW)met NEHU Vice-Chancellor Prof. Prabha Shankar Shukla for the first time with a team of activists and delegates as a part of their courtesy call.

The MeCAW expressed its concern over the serial anomalies and gross flouting of rules left by previous VC for last six years. The MeCAW especially expressed its shock over the scam in the CDD, which CBI is currently investigating.

The MeCAW delegation appraised the new VC Prof.P.S. Shukla that without signatures of Prof. Henry Lamin and the Registrar Dr.J.K.Nayak such scams in tendering, issuance of work order could not have happened. The MeCAW, therefore, urged the new VC not to provide any position to these two tainted actors behind many anomalies and scams so that full enquiry into all such scams could be completed in the interest of NEHU.

The MeCAW urged the newly appointed VC that for smooth functioning of the University and for uplifting it from its current low ranking, a legacy left by Srivastava's failed regime, local aspirations need to be included. In its memorandum submitted to Prof. Shukla, the MECAW asserted quick appointment of a qualified local Pro-VC of Shillong campus to build up bridge with the local community for advancement of academic interests of Meghalaya and the region.

The MeCAW also apprised the new VC that the MeCAW stands for academic development of Meghalaya and the region and implored upon him the the academic Departments of NEHU be funded sufficiently well.
