AMU clarifies about suspension of Prof. Islam



ALIGARH:The Aligarh Muslim University would like to issue certain clarifications regarding the circumstances leading to the suspension of Prof. Hasan Mateenul Islam of the Department of Statistics and Operation Research. This clarification is necessary in view of certain misleading observations in a section of the media.


Prof. Islam’s suspension is the result not of any act of vendetta on the part of the University, but totally on the basis of serious adverse findings against him in two separate fact-finding enquiries.
It is mentioned that the action against Prof. Hasan Mateenul Islam is on the basis of two enquiry committee reports highlighting several acts of misdemeanor, violation of rules and willful disobedience on his part.
The above two separate fact-finding committees were constituted by the Vice Chancellor to probe into the allegations. The fact finding preliminary enquiry on issues related to the appointment of Prof. Hasan Mateenul Islam was conducted by Prof. Ali Athar, Chairman, Department of History and another enquiry on the complaint regarding his consistent acts of misdemeanor, violation of rules and willful disobedience was conducted by two-member committee comprising Prof. Iqbal Parwez, Department of Zoology as Chairman and Prof. Shoaib Zaheer of Department of Medicine as member.
Both the fact-finding enquiry committees upheld the charges against Prof. Hasan Mateenul Islam and found them to be true. The committees have opined that Prof. Hasan Mateenul Islam is blameworthy.
In view of the prima facie case established by the reports of the two fact-finding enquiry committee, disciplinary proceeding is contemplated against the said teacher. He was placed under suspension, with immediate effect by the Vice Chancellor, Lt. Gen. Zameer Uddin Shah (Retd.)
