NJA Bhopal director professor KN Chandrasekharan Pillai, and RGNUL VC professor Paramjit Singh Jaswal were formally notified over the weekend that they would be on the three-member search committee constituted under Section 17(iii) of the Nalsar Act 1998.
While Pillai was nominated by the academic council at Nalsar, Jaswal is understood to have been the nominee of the University Grants Commission (UGC).
Pillai, who is director at NJA Bhopal since July last year, is also a member of the executive council of NLU Delhi, whose current VC Ranbir Singh was formerly VC at Nalsar.
Jaswal became VC of RGNUL in February 2011 after a short stint at HNLU Raipur. Between 2008 and 2009 he was chairman of the department of laws, Punjab University, Chandigarh.
Ganguly, who will preside as convenor of the committee, was nominated by Nalsar chancellor and Andhra Pradesh High Court chief justice Madan B Lokur. Ganguly retired on 2 February after handing down the historic judgment in the 2G scam case.
According to Nalsar insiders the names of a number of potential frontrunners for the job have already been submitted to the chancellor.
The post of VC at Nalsar was thrown open after Nalsar’s present VC, Veer Singh, resigned to join as director, Chandigarh Judicial Academy. Legally India revealed on 9 February that Lokur was seeking nominations to find Nalsar’s next VC.
Veer Singh’s tenure as VC was officially due to end in mid-2013, he had told Legally India in January.
In early February Legally India had published a report obtained via RTI, which highlighted structural problems in the management and administration of the university.

He was nominated by the UGC.
Who are you and why are you commenting under my name?
Come up with something for yourself.
Why the hell are you expressing disgust over something so natural; that too while giving such a ridiculous example?
Note your VC, right? Let us worry.
Sparta for VC!
NALSAR is not an NLU. It is NALSAR.
THIS IS NALSAR (SPARTA STYLE)
I AMA FOR VC!!!
He is in the 2nd place as of now.

one thing is certain NALSAR will always be ruled by somebody from outside, there is no competent Law professor from inside apart from Prof. Dhanda. Prof. Sridhar is too inexperienced, Prof. Sarma, Prof Vijendra and Prof. Reddy may not be keen this time and the other professor (Prof. Vivek Anand) is not even from the field of Law as he heads distance eduction cell of NALSAR. I am sure the 3 member panel will choose a very eminent law professor to lead this elite law school
When elders talk it is not good manners to butt in.
- NALSARite
age may or may not bring quality, but after a point it will certainly bring irrelevance.
