The Aligarh Muslim University vice chancellor Zameer Uddin Shah on Tuesday (November 11) came under attack over his controversial remarks regarding the access of undergraduate girls to a varsity library with HRD Minister Smriti Irani having termed the matter an "insult to daughters". The VC courted controversy as he turned down a demand of students of the varsity's Women's College for access to its main library, saying there would be "more boys" in the library if girls were allowed there. Meanwhile, the Centre has sought an explanation from the VC.
