'High time' to introspect governor as chancellor: WB Education Minister
India Today
The West Bengal Education minister took to Twitter to say that it is 'high time' to examine whether the governor should be the Chancellor of state universities.
The Education Minister for West Bengal, Bratya Basu, said that it is 'high time' to introspect if state universities should have the governor of the state as the Chancellor. This comes after the Governor Jagdish Dhankar expressed his anguish over the non-participation of the vice chancellors of Vice Chancellors in a meeting called by him. It is high time to introspect whether we should continue with the colonial legacy of the Governor being the Chancellor of Universities just by the virtue of his post or we should nominate eminent scholars and educationists as Chancellors.#WestBengal #BratyaBasu #Education
