Sign of bad times


The students of Deemed Universities in TamilNadu are a worried lot now.

The Hindu reports
"The students and parents are confused on whether or not the deemed universities should abide by the standards and norms set by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), for running engineering programmes. The colleges, too are not coming out categorically on their next move."

We have seen violence erupting in SRM Deemed University and Sathyabama Deemed University. The colleges have been shutdown. I believe violence is not a solution this problem, it just makes it bigger. The concerned parties - AICTE & the colleges should come clean on the status.

Hi Rajaraman,

At the end of the day, the students alone suffer. Already, this controversy has taken a life. Last week, a student of satyabama had commited suicide.

I just wish peace prevails and the affected parties come to a conclusion.
