Assam: It’s close to midnight, but students at Tezpur University continue to protest against the Authorities, demanding the removal and action against the Vice Chancellor over financial irregularities.
A massive protest broke out after the authorities refused to accept the students’ demands.
Pro VC is not what they need. They need to remove the current VC and act on it.

With no female police officers present, female students of Tezpur University have made a firm stand, sitting at the main gate to block entry. Meanwhile, male CRPF officers allegedly attempt to intimidate them, but girls remain steadfast in protest.

Tezpur University Stakeholders reject the Board of Management meeting scheduled on Dec 4th, 2025, called by thwe absconding Vice-Chancellor.
The movement will escalate if any step taken against the demands of the stakeholders.

I am disappointed with the stand of the Chief Minister of Assam regarding the on-going protests at Tezpur University.
Real leadership would have meant that the Chief Minister would have stood with the faculty, staff and students of this prestigious university.
Instead the Chief Minister is masking the failures of the current Vice Chancellor by suggesting a pro Vice Chancellor.
Actually the current Vice Chancellor Shambhu Nath Singh is no stranger to controversy as several news articles state.
Back when he was the Vice Chancellor of Patna University in Bihar, there were enquiries about financial irregularities from the office of Principal Accountant General.
It would be best that prestige of Tezpur University should be paramount and a new Vice Chancellor be appointed. Stop using the Universities of Northeast for posting controversial VCs.

Gaurav Gogoi is the only prominent politician in Assam who has raised the issue of Tezpur University.
73 days of protest, multiple resignations. Students’ anger must be addressed.
