The Central University of Himachal Pradesh has decided to appoint an RSS pracharak as “professor of practice” under a national scheme that relaxes the requirements of academic degrees and publications for these posts.
Atul Kothari, national secretary of the Shiksha Sanskriti Utthan Nyas, will be professor of practice in Hindu studies. The Nyas is a self-appointed adviser to the government on curriculum reforms and has suggested the teaching of “Vedic mathematics” at schools, among other recommendations.
