20 of the 70 Colleges of Delhi University have no Principals

With just a few days to go before the new academic session begins at Delhi University (DU), over 20 of its 70 colleges are being run by “officiating” or “acting” principals.
The post at several top-rung colleges have been vacant for several years and they are being run by “acting” principals appointed according to university rules for a term of six months at the most, following which the post is supposed to be filled permanently, or the term is extended.
According to procedure, the responsibility of appointment of principals lies both with the university as well as the college’s governing body.
The post has to be advertised by the governing body and the university is supposed to set up a selection committee for interviews.
However, several colleges do not have governing bodies as well and hence the appointment has been stalled.
