AGARTALA, May 1 (TIWN): Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) has been striving to remove corruption from Tripura University amid Govt’s blind eyes under tainted Vice Chancellor Anjan Kumar Ghosh and his team as well as his advisers.

Anjan Kumar Ghosh who was alleged to be in ‘escaping’ mode from the students’ agitation, had hiked a huge amount of exam fees which is becoming unbearable for the students.

When the ABVP members asked the VC regarding fee-hike causes, he replied that students are getting jobs after passing out from this University and thus the fee was hiked.

The students raised a question, “Does anybody come to study in Tripura University to remain as jobless ?”

Addressing the media, Lipika Roy, ABVP State Secretary, also a student of the University said, “We are protesting since one month with a basic demand, which is the fee-hike. Along with that result scams of Colleges as well as MA under Tripura University is also reason of this agitation”.

“Every year, students are facing problems due to the result corruption. Maximum students are failed in the MA semesters since many years. Before one month the University had promised to solve all the problems including fee hike, result-scams and delay in the results. The fee which was limited within 2000-3000 rupees, have now hiked at 10,000-12,000 rupees. But after one month no solution has come to the issues. Thus we have sat in protest and till the VC, who is playing hide & seek with us will not arrive, we will not go from here”, Lipika Roy said.

“Our work is not only agitation, but we will not stop till the problems are solved permanently. It’s not possible for our all students to provide that much of charges as fee”, she added.
