NSUI Submit Memorandum To Acting VC of Tezpur University

The NSUI submitted a memorandum to Tezpur University's newly appointed Acting Vice-Chancellor, Dr Dhruba Kumar Bhattacharyya, today, raising key demands aimed at improving campus governance and student welfare.

The memorandum outlined three primary concerns:

1. Creation of a Student-Friendly Campus: Students called for initiatives to make the campus safer, more accessible, and supportive for all learners.

2. Inquiry Into Corruption Allegations Against the Vice-Chancellor: The delegation urged authorities to investigate allegations of corruption against former Vice-Chancellor Sambhu Nath Singh, emphasising the need for transparency and accountability.

3. Conduct of Free and Fair Students’ Union Election: The students demanded that the upcoming union elections be conducted fairly, ensuring that the genuine voice of the student body is reflected.

The memorandum comes after days of protests and a temporary campus lockdown. On Thursday night, Dr Bhattacharyya assumed charge as Acting Vice-Chancellor, stepping in at a time when the university community had been on edge for nearly a week.

With the new leadership in place, students and faculty alike are hopeful that the university will move toward resolving ongoing issues and restoring normalcy on campus.
