The final step towards constituting a search committee to appoint a new vice chancellor for the University of Mumbai was completed on Friday. Acting vice chancellor Devanand Shinde nominated a new set of members to its governing bodies. “They will nominate a member for the search committee that will appoint a new vice chancellor for the university. While nominees have been put together, elected members will join the committees later,” said an MU official. Former vice-chancellor, Sanjay Deshmukh was removed from his post by the state governor and chancellor of all state universities in October.
