Sources revealed that some of the principals had submitted petitions to the Tamil Nadu Governor as there was no response to those submitted to CM MK Stalin, Minister for Higher Education K Ponmudi and TN Chief Secretary Irai Anbu in addition to similar petitions to the concerned university VCs and registrars in this connection.
