Principal Professor John Varghese continued his second term without his first term (2016-2021) without necessary permission. The DU did not accept this decision, which led to a dispute in the college administration. DU sent a letter to the UGC on 15 November 2022, 21 February 2023, 20 September 2023, 9 November 2023, 20 November 2023 and 12 February 2024, demanding clarification on the issue, but no clear response has been received so far.
