Committee Interviews Academics for West Bengal University VCs

Committee Interviews Academics for West Bengal University VCs

A special committee is choosing new leaders (VPs) for 15 universities in West Bengal.

This committee was created by the highest court in the country because there was a disagreement on who should be chosen for these jobs.

So far, they've talked to 13 people who want these jobs, interviewing them at a hotel in Kolkata.

These universities have been run by temporary VPs for over two years because the government and the Raj Bhavan couldn't agree on the permanent leaders.
