The letter comes amid an ongoing tussle between the Delhi University and the Delhi government over the affiliation of the art college
Eleven teachers of Delhi University's Academics for Action and Development on Tuesday wrote to varsity's Vice Chancellor Yogesh Singh seeking his "necessary intervention" after the College of Art (CoA) started its admission process as a part of the Ambedkar University. The CoA offers Master's and Bachelor's courses in Fine Arts.
In the letter, the 11 teachers, including members of the varsity's Executive Council (EC) and Academic Council (AC), said such an "unfortunate action" is in contravention of the Acts and Statutes of the Delhi University (DU).
This comes amid an ongoing tussle between the Delhi University and the Delhi government over the affiliation of the art college.
In March last year, the Delhi government had announced that CoA would be affiliated with the Ambedkar University, as the college was facing various problems. The Ambedkar University (AUD) is a Delhi government-funded university.
