Deprecating the practice of a teacher or professor pursuing a full time course while simultaneously working as a faculty member, the Madras High Court has made it clear that it cannot be permitted without prior permission from the university or college concerned
"Otherwise, that will give a wrong signal and that for the sake of convenience, the student may be asked to be a Professor for the purpose of showing the strength and the institution may get the approval/recognition from AICTE and simultaneously allow them to study full time course. This practise is deprecated," the court said
