ABUTA urges Governor RN Ravi to intervene against proposed centralised teacher recruitment in Bengal universities

The All Bengal University Teachers' Association (ABUTA) has approached West Bengal Governor RN Ravi, opposing the state government's proposal for centralised teacher recruitment in government-aided universities. The association has warned that the proposed commission could weaken institutional autonomy and academic freedom. It has also flagged concerns over a 2026 amendment Bill providing for inter-university teacher transfers.
