Dr. Chakraborti, formerly the Director of the Directorate of Open and Distance Learning (DODL) and a professor of Biochemistry at Kalyani University, assumed her new role in the administrative building of Kanyashree University. She was welcomed by Dr. Aniruddha Saha, the course coordinator, and other staff members.

Upon her appointment, Dr. Chakraborti expressed her commitment to addressing the university’s pressing needs. “The university is very new, and I will have to start from the initial stages. I have already reviewed papers related to the immediate requirements, including land and building-related issues. I will work to resolve these matters with the cooperation of all stakeholders,” she said.

The position of Vice-Chancellor had remained vacant for over a year due to a prolonged impasse over appointments in state universities across West Bengal. Dr. Chakraborti’s appointment is seen as a pivotal step in addressing the administrative void and propelling the university’s development.

In a significant gesture on her first day, Dr. Chakraborti participated in the inauguration of the 40th Nadia Book Fair at the Public Library Ground in Krishnagar. Around 150 university students also participated in the book fair rally. Later in the day, she also visited the university’s academic building to inspect its current facilities.
