Jadavpur University Dissolves Committee After Student Event Controversy Involving Neha Bora
Jadavpur University dissolved its 'Approving and Monitoring for Programmes' committee after it approved a student event featuring AISA national president Neha Bora. The event addressed various student and political issues and drew objections from RSS-affiliated groups and the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad over outsider participation. The university initially sought an explanation from the committee chairman but later revoked the notice following protests. Vice-Chancellor Chiranjib Bhattacharya formed a new committee and stated the matter was closed without specifying reasons.
