"In the last hearing in Delhi High Court on May 17, due to poor representation on behalf of the DU, the order went in favour of AU. The university has been asked to conduct admission to CoA as part of AUD. We have asked the vice-chancellor for proper representation," said Seema Das, a member of the DU’s Executive Council and one of the authors of the letter.
On May 20, Ambedkar University began the admission process for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in the College of Art. Admissions to the College of Art could not be held during the last academic session due to the affiliation issue.
