It is, therefore, suggested that such complaints would better be dealt by the ACB," the report said.
In March, MiD DAY had reported that 450 veterinarian staff were recruited to MAFSU last year after having bribed university officials between Rs 2 lakh-Rs 5 lakh.
The matter came to light earlier in February after hundreds of aspiring candidates demanded a refund after they were refused the jobs.
The vice-chancellor of MAFSU, Dr A S Ninawe, was unavailable for comment.
