Rajat kanti Roy by Shyam Roy on 10 Jan 2008

The Vice-Chancellor of Visva Bharati University, Rajat Kanti Roy, should resign. He is simply incompetent and does not how to do the complex job of the Vice Chancellor. He failed to accept responsibility of murder and rapes in his campus hostels. He wasted 50 crores of government funds for security of Visva Bharati. He should accept responsibility and resign.
