Amid the ongoing tension between Governor Banwarilal Purohit and Bhagwant Mann-led Punjab Government, Punjab Rural Development Minister Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal came in defense of the appointment of Dr, Satbir Singh Gosal as Vice-Chancellor of Punjab Agricultural University (PAU).
In press conference, Minister Dhaliwal said that the appointment was made adhering all the norms.
He further demanded apology from Governor Purohit for reportedly creating an obstruction in the functioning of government.
Earlier today, Governor Purohit has asked Bhagwant Mann to remove Dr. Satbir Singh Gosal as Vice-Chancellor of Punjab Agricultural University (PAU).
In the letter to CM Bhagwant Mann, Governor noted that the appointment has been made without following the UGC norms and without the knowledge of the Chancellor.
