Aditya Thackeray meets Maharashtra Governor for vacant posts in Mumbai University

Aditya Thackeray, the head of Yuva Sena, met the Governor of Maharashtra on the issue of two vacant posts in Mumbai University.

The university has been functioning without a Pro vice chancellor and controller of examinations for which Thackeray requested Governor C. Vidyasagar Rao to intervene in the matter. For the last 17 months, the university is functioning without the important positions. It is said that in the last two years, the University has organised interview drives twice to fill the position for exam controller, but none of the candidates were found suitable, which led to poor examination control and results.

I called on the Hon'ble Governor of Maharashtra C. Vidyasagar Rao ji earlier today to request his intervention as Chancellor of Mumbai Uni
