He also added that “He cannot allow unchecked corruption to be sustained in the name of education”. The varsity have not had full governing bodies since October 2016. This is the first time that the bodies were not given a three-month extension. In February, DU had sent a panel of names to Delhi Government following which the AAP dispensation had sent the Governing Body list in March, for approval by Executive Council (EC).

The government had earlier this month threatened to stop the funding if DU failed to constitute Governing Bodies (GBs) by July 31.
