<h1>Jadavpur University Teachers Demand Action After Loss of 'Institute of Eminence' Status Due to Budget Cuts.</h1> The Jadavpur University Teachers Association (JUTA) has urged the acting vice-chancellor to address the loss of the university's 'Institute of Eminence' status, which was reportedly revoked due to a significant reduction in the projected budget. The Empowered Experts Committee recommended removing the university from the list after its budget decreased from Rs 3,299 crore to Rs 606 crore. JUTA criticized the financial handling between the state and central governments and highlighted that the University Grants Commission (UGC) has not refunded 75% of the application fee as required. Protests erupted on campus following an incident involving the state Education Minister.
