The 3-member search committee constituted by the Higher Education Department of Tamil Nadu to select the new Vice-Chancellor (VC) of Anna University has created waves of displeasure as they do not have any experience or exposure to technical education. �This is an unprecedented move. Even though it is not compulsory to have a technical person in the search committee ... while selecting the VC, you should at least have one person with technical education experience in the search panel�, said Former Vice Chancellor of Anna University E. Balaguruswamy.
The search committee comprises of S. Sachithanandam, Former VC of Dr. Ambedkar Law Univeristy in Tamil Nadu who is the Governor-Chancellor�s nominee, K. Aludiyapillai, Former VC of Madurai Kamaraj University who is the State nominee and R. Balasubramaniam, Director of Faculty of Science and Humanities at SRM deemed university who is the syndicate nominee.
