Days after the LDF government introduced a Bill in the Assembly to replace him as the Chancellor of universities, Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan on Saturday said the state government does not have the "sole jurisdiction" over universities and they could not do something unilaterally.
The UGC regulations are one and the same for the whole country and it would prevail, he said, quoting various court judgements in this regard.
