West Bengal assembly passes Bill to replace governor with CM as Chancellor of state universities
The West Bengal assembly has passed the University Laws (Amendment) Bill 2023 which replaces the governor with the chief minister as the chancellor of state-aided universities. The Bill was opposed by the BJP and Governor CV Ananda Bose, who has had a contentious relationship with the TMC-ruled state government since criticism of the West Bengal panchayat polls. This is the second time the bill has been passed, with the previous version passed in 2022.
