R.K. Pachauri out of TERI, Ajay Mathur to take charge

Nothing could eventually save R.K. Pachauri’s job—not a lower court order permitting him to attend TERI offices, barring the head office and a Gurgaon branch, nor a challenge to an internal complaints committee (ICC) probe that found him guilty of sexual harassment. On Thursday, TERI issued a press release confirming the removal of its director-general who has been in the eye of a storm ever since a researcher levelled charges of sexual harassment, assault, stalking and intimidation against Pachauri in February.
