STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY TO PARTS (a) to (c) OF LOK SABHA STARRED  QUESTION  NO.  *40  FOR  05.02.2018  ASKED  BY  SH.  DUSHYANT CHAUTALA,  HON'BLE  MEMBER  OF  PARLIAMENT  REGARDING  TEACHERS ON AD-HOC BASIS.

- (a)  Universities are autonomous bodies established under a Central Act, a Provincial Act or a State Act. The onus of filling up of vacant teaching posts in Universities lies with them. Universities are permitted to recruit Ad-hoc/Guest Faculty/Reemployed/Contract Faculty against vacant positions, from time to time, depending upon their operational requirements to the extent of 10% of total faculty positions, as per UGC regulations. University Grants Commission (UGC) has sent several communications to the Universities to expedite filling up of vacant teaching posts.
- (b)  As  per data  available with UGC, a detailed statement indicating the numbers of ad-hoc teachers in various Central and Deemed to be Universities is at Annexure-I &  II  respectively.  No  such  data  is  centrally  maintained  in  respect  of  State Universities.
- (c)  There is no provision for regularization of the ad-hoc teachers as per the rules.
