West Bengal governor asks JU VC to ignore EC resolution on special convocation, calls it illegal

A day after Jadavpur University authorities announced cancellation of the special convocation, West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar on Sunday shot off a letter to the varsity vice-chancellor asking him to ignore the "illegal" resolution. Left student unions, AFSU and SFI, termed the governor's move an "unwarranted interference into the autonomy of the institute" and threatened strong protest if he "does anything by force".
