More than 200 applications for the post of Vice Chancellor of Devi Ahilya University (DAVV) have reached Raj Bhavan. In the race to become vice-chancellor, retired professors, former principals, additional directors, including many senior teachers of government colleges and universities. A search committee is being formed by Raj Bhavan to select a new vice-chancellor. The Chancellor`s race also includes the current Vice Chancellor of DAVV, Professor Dr. Renu Jain. Wednesday was the last day to apply for the post of vice-chancellor.

It is worth noting that after the technical glitches in the CET exam in the year 2019, the Higher Education Department removed the then Vice Chancellor of DAVV, Dr. Narendra Dhakad, by imposing Section 52. About a month after this, Dr. Renu Jain, Professor of Jeevaji University, was made the Vice Chancellor of DAVV.

Members of the search committee to be constituted as new vice chancellors have been called by the Raj Bhavan from the Higher Education Department and UGC. After the committee members are decided and formed, applications for the post of vice-chancellor will be scrutinized. According to the information, DAVV may get a new chancellor by September 2020.
