Mass leave by NIMS faculty from August 11

Hyderabad: On the sixth day of their protest against the three-tier system, the Nims Faculty Association on Saturday decided to go on mass casual leave on August 11. Only emergency services will work that day.

A letter seeking mass casual leave was given to director Dr L. Narendranath. There were rumours of a quarrel between the faculty members over use of words like ‘high-handed’ to describe Dr Narendranath but association general secretary Dr B Kalyan denied it.
