PETALING JAYA: The appointment of a 26-year-old performing arts graduate into Universiti Malaya’s board of directors has kicked off a controversy.

The announcement on the new appointment was made by UM on Monday , leading to criticism from various quarters, with some alleging that strings were pulled due to Danesh Raj Nagarajan being an aide to Deputy Speaker Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said.

The appointment of Danesh Raj was also defended by Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Dr Noraini Ahmad in Parliament on Tuesday . In a statement on Thursday , the Universiti Malaya Students’ Union said that UM was no place for political appointees.
