Pasupalak resigns as OUAT VC

Wednesday, 20 March 2019 | PNS | BHUBANESWAR

Vice-Chancellor of the Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology (OUAT) Surendranath Pasupalak resigned from his post on Tuesday.

He sent his resignation to university Chancellor and Governor Prof Ganeshi Lal by post.

Three weeks ago, Pasupalak had been sent on leave to ensure transparency in an inquiry against him. He was accused of misusing his official position, manipulating records for personal benefits and erroneous advertisement in recruitment for Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs) of the OUAT.

Worth mentioning, a Vigilance probe was also ordered against him in December last year with the Chief Secretary being asked to submit a report within six months.

Pasupalak had assumed the charge of VC on March 28, 2016. He was to retire in a month.
