Insiders allege that university decisions are affected because significant positions in the syndicate are empty
With caste politics casting a shadow on the Bangalore University, significant positions in the syndicate have fallen vacant for four months, hurting the democratic process of decision-making.
Aravinda Limbavali, higher education minister, has apparently locked horns with Chief Minister BS Yeddurappa over government nominations to the positions, which fell vacant after six nominees retired last April.
"The file was sent four months ago to the CM's office, after short listing the nominees. I don't know the reason for the delay," said Limbavali.
