STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS.

Sub-section (1) of section 17 of the Maharashtra Agricultural Universities

(Krishi Vidyapeeths) Act, 1983 (Mah. XLI of 1983) provides for appointment of

Vice-Chancellor. Clause (a) of sub-section (1) of the said section 17 provides that,

there shall be a Committee to recommend suitable names to the Chancellor for

appointment of Vice-Chancellor. As provided in sub-clause (ii), the Director General,

Indian Council of Agricultural Research, New Delhi is one of the member of the said

Committee. The Director General, Indian Council of Agricultural Research, NewDelhi,

is also the Secretary of the Department of Agriculture Research and Education

(DARE), Government of India. The post of the said Director General is a single post

having jurisdiction all over the India and such as it becomes difficult for the Director

General to get sufficient time to work on such Committee.

2.

Considering the work-load of the Director General, and to ensure that

the selection process of Vice-Chancellor of the Agricultural Universities

(Krishi Vidyapeeths) is expedited, it is considered expedient to provide that the

Director General may either himself or through his nominee who is retired Director

General, Indian Council of Agricultural Research, New Delhi or the Chairman,

Agricultural Scientists’ Recruitment Board (ASRB), New Delhi or the Director, Indian

Agricultural Research Institute (IARI), New Delhi, shall be a member on the Committee

for suggesting suitable names to the Chancellor for appointment of the

Vice-Chancellor. For the said purpose, it is considered expedient to amend section 17

of the said Act, suitably.
