Telangana Higher Education Council vice chairman S Mallesham said that the issue was at a preliminary stage, and no direction has been issued by the government.
However, he said that other states in the country have separate chancellors for state universities. He said, “In Telangana, few universities have chancellors and this is not a surprise. Efforts are underway to appoint vice-chancellors for universities in existing vacancies.” The government is keen on appointing chancellors, an advisory post with five years fixed tenure.
