Protest for UGC fellowships continues

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: As their protest demonstration to press their demand for University Grants Commission fellowships for research scholars entered its ninth day on Saturday, Delhi University Researchers’ Coordination Committee members claimed that there had been no move from the administration to initiate a dialogue with them.

“The UGC fellowships were to be made available from December 2006. It has been a year so far and nothing has been done by the Delhi University administration to start the process of implementing these scholarships,” said Committee coordinator Vipul Pachori.

“When we met Vice-Chancellor Deepak Pental a couple of months ago, we were verbally assured that the process will be initiated on October 16, but in vain. When a delegation of research scholars met the authorities on Friday, they warned that police action will be taken against those staging a dharna,” he alleged.

The Committee has been protesting outside the Vice-Chancellor’s office since November 30.
