It was learnt that the collegiate education department office had today filed a report dated 13th July 2023 before the Madras High Court Madurai Bench based on the report of Regional Joint Director of Collegiate Education-Madurai dated 12th July 2023 by stating that none of the acquired properties of Dr.Davamani Christober (as mentioned in the complaint by petitioner) were informed to the government as they were not found in the service register.
“The issue that came up in the honourable court today was about a contempt case filed in the court by Dr.Prabhahar Vedhamanickam questioning delay by DCE and pleading for speedy action in the disproportionate wealth complaint against the present Principal and Secretary of American College Dr.Davamani Chistober. So, the DCE has been earlier asked by the honourable court to present its report.
