Meghalaya’s Minister for Animal Husbandry and Veterinary, AL Hek, has expressed concerns over the functioning of NEHU under its current Vice Chancellor, Prof. Prabha Shukla Shankar. He stated that the university’s progress would remain stalled if the central government continues to retain the current VC.
Speaking today, Hek revealed that a BJP delegation led by him recently met with Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and other senior BJP leaders to discuss the ongoing issues at NEHU.
Hek highlighted widespread discontent among faculty, students, and staff regarding the current leadership and stressed the need for immediate action. He added that Delhi leaders are aware of the situation and are expected to act appropriately once the Inquiry Committee submits its report.
