In the latest since the incumbent V-C took charge in 2018, faculty member files FIR against him for humiliating teachers
For the Rabindranath Tagore-founded Visva-Bharati, 2021 was meant to be a year of celebrations, marking 100 years of the university, but it stands overshadowed by COVID-19 and constant clashes between the Vice-Chancellor and the staff.
On Friday evening, Manas Maity, a Professor of Physics, filed an FIR at the Santiniketan Police Station against the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Bidyut Chakrabarty, for humiliating teachers during an online meeting on June 8. While it is highly unlikely that anything of significance is going to come of the complaint, the FIR is an indication how the university is marking its centenary.

In Visva-Bharati, a major political flip-flop

Its disappearance was as unexpected as its appearance, leaving questions unanswered and the field open for people to make guesses — and also, perhaps, putting a question mark on the Bidyut Chakrabarty’s future as the Vice-Chancellor of the Santiniketan-based Visva-Bharati.
On Wednesday morning, a notice was uploaded on the university website, inviting people to the next lecture in its lecture series, to be held virtually on the evening of May 18. The lecture was to be delivered by Professor Sanjay Kumar, Joint Advisor at Niti Aayog, and presided over by Professor Chakrabarty himself. The subject of the lecture: ‘Why BJP failed to win West Bengal Assembly Elections?’

Rabindranath's vision of freedom and openness has been vandalised in Santiniketan, or appropriated to play petty power games
