Shillong, May 08: The General Secretary of the North Eastern Hill University Students’ Union (HEHUSU) Mr Teilang Rymbai has written a letter to the Vice Chancellor of the University demanding that the Head of the department of English and Political Science should reinstate immediately.
In two separate letters sent to the Vice Chancellor said that the NEHU Students Union are standing in solidarity with the Senior Lecturer of Political Science Department, who was stripped off the responsibility as Head of Department earlier by the Administration on the pretext that the Professor has not submitted the report to the Administration in the official format.
This act by the Administration cannot be tolerated by the Student Community and is highly condemnable. With reference to vide NEHUSU/2019/20/D-04 dated 22.04.2020 , that was sent to your office regarding the problems that students are facing with the online classes, it can be clearly seen now that the Administration has turned a blind eye on their own students.
Furthermore by pressuring the teachers, the Administration is indirectly pressurizing the students to take up the online class which was clearly stated as it was not mandatory. We hope that your office will rectify the act that was carried towards the teacher of our university, and we demand the immediate reinstatement of the Professor of Political Science Department as the Head of the Department.
