It is improper and unjust to entrust such work.<br /><br />He has marked the copy of the letter to Water Resources Minister Uma Bharati, BJP national president Amit Shah, besides Adi. In his letter to Governor Vajubhai Vala, Madhusudana reminded him that he had rightly ordered an inquiry against the present and former vice-chancellors of Karnataka State Open University (KSOU).<br /><br />The former vice-chancellor is K C Rangappa, who is now the vice-chancellor of the University of Mysore and M G Krishnan is the present vice-chancellor of KSOU.<br /><br />However, the MLC has not mentioned the names. The BJP leader said the Justice Bhaktavatsala Committee had indicted both the present and former vice-chancellors for causing heavy financial losses to the University and for abusing power. The report was submitted in mid-October this year.<br /><br />“After receiving the report, you had ordered criminal proceedings against the officers of KSOU. You had given a time-frame of one month from November 3 for lodging a criminal complaint. Even after a lapse of 22 days, the officials have not taken steps to comply with your orders. You have to step in, to safeguard the sanctity of your own orders,” he said.</p>
