K. Vinod Chandran, J.
In the nature of the orders to be passed in the above writ petition, we need to briefly refer to what transpired on the last date. On 25.08.2023, when the matter was called Sri P.K. Shahi, learned Senior Counsel appearing for the 7th respondent specifically pointed out that the Chancellor of the University had conducted an enquiry into the specific allegations raised herein, against the 7th respondent and found his appointment and continuance to be proper.
