Tribhuvan University (TU), the country’s oldest university, has been subject to interferences from different quarters time and again. Sometimes the hurdle comes from the university staff, and occasionally it gets shut due to protests carried out by students and sister organisations of different political parties. Quiet recently, the TU administrative rooms have been padlocked for more than a month due to the protest of TU part-time teachers, the contract teachers and the students. As the Vice Chancellor, Rector and Registrar have been barricaded to execute their everyday roles and responsibilities, important daily operations, the long-term planning, implementation, and supervisions have come to a halt.
