With IIT Delhi director Raghunath K Shevgaonkar resigning more than two years before the end of his term, Union Human Resource and Development (HRD) Minister Smriti Irani has called a meeting here on Sunday to discuss the issue.
According to reports, Shevgaonkar was under pressure from the HRD Ministry to release pay of nearly Rs 70 lakh to former IIT D faculty and now BJP leader Subramanian Swamy as his salary dues between 1972 and 1991.
