Magadh University students meet Raj Bhavan officials, demand results for UG, PG courses
A group of students of Magadh University (MU) met the officials of Raj Bhavan urging that the results of around half-a-dozen courses in undergraduate, postgraduate and vocational courses be declared at the earliest. While the officials at the Governor's House heard the students' grievances, they did not give any assurance on the dates of announcement of results, that have been delayed by over six months to one year now.
The Governor is the chancellor of MU, a state university with more than 2 lakh students in its 129 constituent and affiliated colleges. Nikhil Kumar, a PG student in Chemistry (2017-19 session) at the university, “About a hundred students took out a silent march towards Raj Bhavan. Four students were allowed to meet Raj Bhavan joint secretary Pravin Kumar Gupta, who gave us a patient hearing and said they will soon meet top MU officials," as reported by Indian Express.
For this batch, the result was expected by May or June this year which was delayed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Preeti Nandini, an education activist, said, “Students have moved from pillar to post, seeking their results. We hope our efforts have some impact on the MU system”.
Meanwhile, the corruption case of University officials is currently under investigation, including Vice-Chancellor Rajendra Prasad, who is absconding since November 2021. This is also one of the main reason for the delay in the declaration of results.
Prasad has been absconding after the state vigilance unit (SVU) charged him with corruption last year. The Patna High Court had rejected his anticipatory bail plea in May. Prasad is accused of financial irregularities in the purchase of OMR sheets, answer books and library books worth several lakhs.
