West Bengal Governor may move High Court against Jadavpur University convocation

West Bengal Governor C.V. Ananda Bose is likely to approach the Calcutta High Court against the ‘unauthorised convocation’ at Jadavpur University on December 24.

The convocation was held despite the Governor sacking Vice-Chancellor Buddhadeb Sau and the Pro Vice-Chancellor assuming the role of the V-C on his own.

“It is reliably learnt that Chancellor of State aided universities in West Bengal, Dr. C V Ananda Bose, has received legal advice to move a writ of quo warranto in the Calcutta High Court against the unauthorised convocation in Jadavpur University, flouting the law of the land and judgments of the Supreme Court,” a Raj Bhawan source told The Hindu.
