After a brief pause, I'm pleased to reconnect with some encouraging and positive developments. The visit to Jadavpur University went ahead as planned, and we had the opportunity to meet both the Vice-Chancellor and the Pro Vice-Chancellor. There was a clear convergence between our concerns and those expressed by the Vice Chancellor, reflecting a shared commitment to securing IoE status for Jadavpur University.

The Vice-Chancellor informed us that the University has already initiated communications with various decision-makers regarding this matter. At the same time, he emphasized that our collective initiative to influence ministry with growing public support for our alma mater, can play a significant role in influencing the government's decision in favor of granting IoE status to Jadavpur University.

This reinforces the importance of continuing our efforts in collaboration and support from JU administration. Every signature, every share, and every conversation helps strengthen the case for JU and amplifies the voice of its alumni, students, faculty, and well-wishers.

Let us keep the momentum going and work together to secure the recognition that Jadavpur University rightfully deserves.

Regards

from the team
