Rs 12.06 crores has been released by the Delhi government to the six Delhi University colleges that are fully funded by it. However, it has been alleged by the Delhi University Teachers’ Association that the 12 colleges which are funded by the Delhi government have proved to be inadequate for the colleges.
The DUTA had said that the Delhi government had released grants in aid to Delhi University colleges for paying salaries in three installments for the final installment for the financial year 2019-2020 towards salaries from January to March. Two installments of the financial year 2020-21 are also to be made in this grant.
The DUTA also said that one release of each of these installments, it was brought to the notice of the Government of Delhi that the grants sanctioned were not enough to cover salaries for the above-mentioned periods and highly inadequate.
The colleges have not received any grant-in-aid for the months of June, July, or August, said DUTA.
