The woman professor, however, did not suffer any injury, the police said.
According to a senior official of the polytechnic, the professor, who is a head of department (Hod), had filed complaints against the lab assistant for indiscipline and absenteeism.
Names of both the women were not disclosed.
The assistant's salary too had been withheld for remaining absent without leave.

Around noon on Wednesday, the woman allegedly went to the HoD's cabin and threw liquid ammonia at her from a glass jar.
The HoD quickly covered her face with her 'odhni' and did not suffer any injury, the college official said.
Officials of the Sadar Police Station recorded statements of both the women. As the HoD did not want to file any complaint, no case was registered, a police official said.
