A day after Delhi University's senior faculty member Apoorvanand Jha, who was to participate in an academic event at The New School in New York, was denied permission to travel, the professor on Thursday was yet again asked by the office of Registrar to submit the text of the speech he was to deliver at the US seminar.
However, once again, he refused, alleging violation of institutional and academic freedom.
Speaking to this newspaper, Apoorvanand said he had sought leave to participate in the 20th anniversary celebrations of the India-China Institute at The New School in New York from April 23 to May 1. He was scheduled to speak on the topic "The University under a global authoritarian turn" during the visit.
