The University Grants Commission (UGC) Vice-Chairman Prof H Devaraj is likely to be named as the new Vice Chancellor of the University of Madras.
The search committee to select the new Vice Chancellor is awaiting an appointment to submit the file to Tamil Nadu Governor K Rosaiah and the announcement is likely to be made soon.
The final list, decided upon by the three-member committee, includes M Kandaswamy, professor and head of inorganic chemistry, Madras University, and S Sriman Narayanan, professor and head of analytical chemistry at the university, sources said. Kandaswamy had been in the race for the job in 2013 as well along with P Kaliraj, then officiating vice-chancellor of Anna University, and R Thandavan who finally got the job.
Commenting on the development, the UGC Vice Chairman said, "I am yet to receive any communication on this matter. But I would be happy and honoured to take up the position, if I am offered."
There is still uncertainty over the appointments of VCs for Madurai Kamaraj University and Coimbatore-based Bharathiar University. On February 13, the senate nominee in the search committee to select a vice-chancellor for MKU, Mu Ramasamy, resigned from the panel citing irregularities in the process. Now, a re-election will have to be conducted to choose the senate nominee, a professor of the university said, ToI reported.
