It has been over two months since the order of appointment for a new full-time principal for the Government Law College (GLC) was out, but no one has taken charge yet. The iconic GLC will get a full-time principal after almost a decade of ad-hoc appointments. But the delay in taking charge has caused talk and speculation among students and faculty members, especially as the academic year has begun.

Dr Asmita Vaidya, the principal of the NBT Law College in Nashik, has been appointed full-time principal for the GLC. The order of appointment was declared on June 26. But Joint Director, Higher Education Rohidas Kale was given additional charge of GLC from August 1 after Suvarna Keole, a district judge who was appointed in-charge principal was transferred.
