Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan Refuses to Approve University Laws Amendment Bill

Date:

Updated: [falahcoin_post_modified_date]

Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan has announced that he will not give his assent to the University Laws Amendment Bill, which he says violates the spirit of the Constitution. The bill would remove the governor’s role as chancellor of the state’s universities, which was intended to prevent excessive government interference in university decision-making. In the proposed new system, a three-member committee would select a new chancellor, who would hold office for five years. Commentators have raised concerns that under the new arrangements, less qualified individuals could be appointed. The bill was passed by the Kerala assembly in December 2020.
