Madras High Court has ordered the arrest of Tamil Nadu Higher Education Secretary Mangat Ram Sharma for his failure to appear before it in a contempt case.
He was directed to appear in person on Monday in a case pertaining to the Coimbatore based Bharatiyar University’s distance education courses outside its jurisdictional areas.
However, the IAS officer failed to comply with the court direction.
Justice N Kriubakaran directed the court registry to issue a bailable warrant against him.
