For some people, Visva-Bharati a goose that lays golden eggs:

Visva-Bharati Vice-Chancellor Bidyut Chakraborty on Friday claimed that a section of people are using the fund-starved central university "as the goose which lays golden eggs".

Addressing a gathering to observe the International Mother Language Day in the campus, Chakraborty also came down heavily on those "trying to malign" the institute founded by Rabindranath Tagore.

"Many people are using the Visva-Bharai as the goose which lays golden eggs," he said adding that the university is going through a financial crisis and "is in ventilation".

The VC's outburst was aimed at the media, local traders and hoteliers as well as Left-leaning teachers, students and a section of those "who visit Rajghat wearing caps on Gandhiji's birthday".

Chakraborty observed that his detractors never speak out against "some people who pay tributes to personalities like Gandhiji on his birthday, talk about the simple lifestyle of the Father of the Nation. But they themselves do not believe in those words and are mired in corruption."
Chakraborty said, "I deplore those who had doctored and distorted a video and upload it in social media for the sake of sensationalism."
In a dig at a section of Left-leaning teachers and students, he said had they been really concerned about the institute, they should have prevented those "who want to earn money by maligning the Visva Bharati."
