We, the students and faculty of Tezpur University in Sonitpur, Assam, have a pressing concern. Our institution, which has been a beacon of higher education in the region, is currently facing challenges in leadership appointment. We believe that a decisive and effective leader should guide our esteemed university.

Our stand is clear: We want Professor Dhruba K. Bhattacharyya, a respected academic figure, as our acting Vice Chancellor. Prof. Bhattacharyya has demonstrated exceptional leadership qualities, academic excellence, and a deep commitment to the educational community. His vision aligns with our aspirations for Tezpur University to excel on a national and global scale.

Our urgency stems from the unsettling prospect of Prof. Joya Chakraborty assuming the position. We have our reservations about her leadership style and its alignment with the current needs of our university. Many within our community feel that her appointment may not foster the growth and collaborative spirit that Tezpur University needs at this critical time.

Having Prof. Bhattacharyya at the helm will ensure a continuity of progressive policies and proactive engagement with both faculty and students. Given his track record, we are confident that under his stewardship, Tezpur University will rise to new heights.

We urge the governing bodies to consider our plea seriously and appoint Prof. Bhattacharyya as the acting Vice Chancellor. This decision is crucial for maintaining the esteemed standards of our university and supporting the academic pursuits of countless students.

Please join us in this vital cause for the future of Tezpur University by signing this petition. Let us come together to ensure our university's success and uphold its reputation as a leading educational institution. Your support can make a difference!
