Mysore/Mysuru: Accusing the NIE (National Institute of Engineering) and NIE-IT Management of violating the Government and Court orders on reinstating them, the sacked employees of NIE-IT said that they are planning to file a Contempt petition in the Court.
Announcing this at a press meet here yesterday, Prof. Veda Mohan, one of the sacked faculty of NIE-IT, said that the Management had promised them job security after the NIE and NIE-IT were merged. But now the Management has broken its promise, by sacking most of the faculty and staff of NIE-IT. The matter was brought to the notice of Higher Education and Technical Education Department Principal Secretary, who ordered that the sacked staff be taken back for duty. Also, a petition was filed in the Karnataka High Court questioning their sacking.
