The post of BBMKU vice-chancellor had been vacant since October 13, 2023, after the Governor (Chancellor) sacked Dr Sukdeo Bhoi on corruption charges. Dr Bhoi lived on the post for merely 16 months. He joined on June 26, 2022, and was sacked on October 13, 2023.

“After getting time, the teachers’ body will organize a grand function to felicitate the new vice-chancellor soon”, said Dr Beck.

The move of the teachers’ body keeps significance as it had no cordial relation with sacked vice-chancellor Dr Sukdeo Bhoi who used to get the gate of post graduate (PG) department locked from 9.30 am to 4.30 PM daily.

BBMKUTA general secretary Dr Beck said that since he is a scholar we would also make the new VC aware of the long pending demands of teachers and other burning problems being faced by faculty members of the university as well as colleges.

“But same time we will also alert the new VC to keep flatters away as they have caused massive damage to 7-year-old university by misguiding the top brass”, said general secretary Dr Amulya Suman Beck.
