The HRD Ministry has sought the President's nod for an inquiry into allegations of irregularities leveled against Jamia Millia Islamia University authorities.
"There have been some allegations of irregularities. The Ministry has written to the President, who is the visitor of central universities, to allow an inquiry into them," a ministry source said.
A former senior faculty member of the varsity had leveled allegations of administrative irregularities against varsity authorities. The ministry had then sought a reply from the varsity on the charges.
When contacted, JMI VC Talat Ahmad said a reply was given with regard to the allegations, which he termed as baseless.
