Mysuru: The teaching and non-teaching staff of Karnataka State Open University (KSOU) — which has been awaiting recognition for over two years — have now decided to seek Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s intervention to end the imbroglio.
In a petition to the Prime Minister’s Office, 11 teaching and 35 non-teaching faculty members of KSOU have urged the PM for immediate and direct intervention to resolve the crisis. They said, the poor, rural candidates, working women and housewives have been hit hard by the University Grants Commission’s (UGC) decision to terminate recognition for the Varsity from the 2013-14 academic year.
