Jammu, January
Following the absolute backing of vice chancellor, Prof Ishar Mohan Singh, National Students Federation (NSF) president, Vikas Sharma not only managed to secure a post of contractual lecturer of Statistics at Directorate of Distance Education (DDE), University of Jammu but is also reportedly withdrawing regular salary of Rs 16000 per month, against the norm of ‘lecture based payment’ earlier. 
The post for which Vikas Sharma is appointed, earlier used to outsource the faculty and payment was decided according to the time given by the lecturer per day.
A highly placed sources in the Jammu University claimed “earlier the salary for the said post was according to lectures taken, which is standardized for Rs 150 for under-graduate classes per hour and Rs 250 for post-graduate classes. And the monthly sum of the salary withdrawn by the outsourced lecturer was around Rs 2250 and Rs 3750, respectively of minimum one hour for 15 days,” rued official source, adding here in the case of Vikas Sharma, Jammu University is paying Rs 16000 per month, which is in no way beneficial for the University.
“The appointment of Vikas Sharma is not only the result of pressurizing tactics, but also the failure of administrative policies of vice chancellor, which made him to bow in front of his (Vikas) demands” alleged official sources wishing anonymity, adding “As against the lecture based payment earlier, Rs 16000 withdrawn by Vikas Sharma bores extra brunt on the university exchequer every month.”
If sources are to be believed, Vikas had a close relation with Vice Chancellor, Jammu University Ishar Mohan Singh, under whose patronage Vikas was inducted as a contractual lecturer in the DDE.
“Owing to a political background and his crusade of exposing one after another scam of the Jammu University, Vikas Sharma succeeded in influencing the Vice Chancellor to get a job of contractual lecturer,” claimed sources.
Working to maintain his better reputation as a vice chancellor, Prof Singh has successfully silenced blackmailers.

“To keep his work record clear of any controversy and scam, vice chancellor has negotiated with Vikas at the cost of university exchequer,” maintained sources in Jammu University.
