Narain said the UGC and the government must withdraw the norms immediately and regularise the ad hoc teachers. Delhi University and its colleges have nearly 9,000 teachers, including 4,500 ad hoc teachers. "We do not want to create trouble for students and parents," Delhi University Teachers Association president Nandita Narain said. The teachers conduct all the key steps, from verifying the application forms and documents to selecting and admitting the students.
