Mysore/Mysuru: Observing that most of the Universities of the State were facing shortage of teaching faculty, University of Mysore (UoM) Vice-Chancellor (VC) Prof. G. Hemantha Kumar said that though the number of students was increasing with every year, the faculty shortage is hindering academic activities.
He was speaking at the felicitation programme of Vijayapura’s Akkamahadevi University Vice-Chancellor Prof. B.K. Tulasimala organised by the UoM’s Economics and Co-operation Department at Vijnana Bhavan in Manasagangothri campus here recently.

Now she has been serving Akkamahadevi University as its head for the past two years, he said adding that Prof. Tulasimala was a vociferous reader, which had catapulted her to this top position.
