The Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) has dismissed nearly 115 teaching and non-teaching staff members across its four campuses in India. The affected employees were informed that their contracts would not be renewed, and their services would end on June 30. The decision, which came as a shock to the staff, was attributed to a lack of funds from the Tata Education Trust, which had been funding their salaries. Reports indicate that 55 faculty members and 60 non-teaching staff were dismissed without notice.
