HC orders status-quo on Asst. grade appointments

January 06, 2012: The Kerala High Court has ordered that status quo be maintained till Monday in a matter relating to appointments to Assistant Grade-II posts in Kerala University in 2007.
The Assistant grade appointments were earlier annulled by the Kerala Lok Ayukta citing irregularities in the conduct of examinations and interview. The Court instructed this while considering the pleas filed by 31 persons challenging the Lok Ayukta order.
In its order, Upa Lok Ayukta G Sasidharan ordered cancellation of the rank list for the post held in 2007. Many candidates who got low marks in the examinations found top places in the rank list after interview, he observed.
The Upa Lok Ayukta also recommended legal action against the then Vice Chancellor of the University MK Ramachandran Nair, Pro-VC V Jayaprakash, syndicate members PS Rajeev, A A Rasheed, KA Andrew and MP Russell in the case.
