THE chairman of the Sangam College of Nursing (SCN), Amraiya Naidu, and deputy chairman Dr Neelesh Gounder have stepped down from their positions.
This was confirmed yesterday by TISI Sangam national secretary Gyneshwar Rao.
“We actually received the letter of resignation from both of them,” Mr Rao said.
He said the matter would be discussed during the organisation’s national executive board and council of management meetings scheduled for this weekend.
“Nothing has been finalised yet. I can’t tell you anything more than that.”
Former TISI Sangam national president and past chairman of the Sangam Institute of Technology (Sangam College of Nursing), Sada Siwan Naicker, said yesterday that both men had resigned due to interference in the operations and academic governance of the college.
He claimed that a large sum of money from the college had also been taken as an advance to cover headquarters’ expenses.
Mr Naicker claimed TISI Sangam president Praveen Bala and the management had failed to act decisively to resolve the issue.
Attempts to get a comment from Mr Bala were unsuccessful yesterday.
