Exclusive: Nalsar Hyderabad registrar Dr Madabhushi Sridhar Acharyulu will be replaced as registrar by Nalsar professor KVS Sarma, Sridhar was told by the college’s vice chancellor’s (VC) office today. The college’s new VC is yet to take up the reins.
Sridhar told Legally India that he had received communication around 1:00pm today from the VC’s office that his appointment as registrar had been revoked by the chancellor.
He said that the development was sudden and reasons were not supplied to him.
Sarma is a “subject expert” who selects professors at Nalsar and several other law colleges, and is also a member of the planning board, general council and academic council at Nalsar.
Outgoing Nalsar VC Prof Veer Singh, who is set to join the Chandigarh Judicial Academy shortly, and Sarma were not reachable for comment.
The Nalsar Act, which in Section 18 lays down the procedure for the appointment of registrar, does not appear to specify a procedure for ending registrars’ appointments.
Newly-appointed Nalsar VC Prof Faizan Mustafa, who is presently NLU Cuttack in Orissa (NLUO) VC, is not yet involved in Nalsar’s internal functioning until he assumes his post at the university, according to a source close to NLUO.
The source said that it was not yet decided whether Mustafa would be able take up Nalsar office from 1 April, as originally scheduled.
Sridhar and Sharma were among the several faculty members whose names appeared in last year’s judges’ committee report on Nalsar, several paragraphs, alongwith a downloadable copy, of which were reproduced by Legally India, earlier this year.

NALSAR has had its share. Please turn to the newer law schools. You'll unearth a pandora's box. Turn to NLU, Orissa. There is much to be uncovered.
The reputation and class this Hyderabad college has is too prominent.
NALSAR is undoubtedly the best and we do not want 'Amused' to love it. So people are requested to keep their views to themselves. I am sure you are from some tier 3 Law school. Or may be you are a law graduate who does not even match our first years in terms of 'brains' which you just proved you do not have. :D
@Amused: I am sure NALSAR is every law students dream but sometimes it proves to be sour grapes as it did in your case.
Our first years can pimp any tier two or three grade law college like pulp. Hooda, Kshitij Goyal, Banka Babu, Neotia, Anna, Baliga and International Society Stud can take them down single handedly.
Grow some brains before littering LI.
Hate to break it to you buddy but a lot of us are of the opinion that it is no longer the 'top institution'. The standards have fallen.
just for kicks- NUJS rocks!!!
Why don't you go interview Mr. Mustafa (sounds like a Star Wars planet..if you guys have seen Star Wars) and ask him about the great plans he has for Nalsar. Will he be snubbing the students like the previous VCs and join hands with the great & oh so brilliant faculty members like VK and continue to screw the happiness of the students or listen to the grievance of the students and act reasonably?
Just helping you out with certain questions you might want to ask him. You are welcome by the way.
Oh my my, NALSAR is NO. 1 and MPL and recruitment blah blah..u sound like a sissy. We surely want to know the necessary stuff and detest irresponsible journalism (sensationalising anything which hardly qualifies as a news), not just who sneezed at any damn law school. Only because of immature comments like yours, people start "my law school best" comments. And for the record NLSIU is No.1 (just for this last time) and the world knows it. RIP!!
Your view on this is analogous to someone saying that just because Harish Salve is a great man, unusual variations in his bowel movements must be recorded in the news.
Nalsar may well be great, but no one cares about minor administrative changes.
In any case, the moot concluded late yesterday and we have official organiser confirmation now of the full results.

You will appreciate that we can not publish a story without organiser confirmation of all results, and we generally try to get quotes from winners, which takes a while particularly when competitors are abroad.
The latest news are updated on our MPL Facebook page- please follow this for the latest MPL breaking news as they come in: www.facebook.com/mooting.in

You can publish a story about a law college at the drop of a hat and evidently based on a lot of unconfirmed information (at least through official channels). But you can't publish a story about a moot without speaking to the organizers even if several law students who participated in the moot provide the results?
Interesting.
We have published the fact of Nalsar winning the Oxford Moot on the MPL Facebook page and at the bottom of our latest MPL update. We've had confirmation from the organisers.
Now we are trying to get some quotes from the winners so they can tell us about the experience, as we've been doing with most MPL stories this year.
Why so worried?
Best wishes

She is the only LLM candidate ever to have got Gates Cambridge Scholarship. This scholarship is as big as Rhodes Scholarship. I suppose it definately deserves a story in LI.
