Tuensang, September 8 (MExN): The Eastern Nagaland College Students’ Union (ENCSU) has urged the Technical Education Department (TED) and the Government of Nagaland to immediately release the College/Tuition fee of the three MBBS students who were sent to study last year.
According to the ENCSU, the students were sent as per “our due share.”
“It is to be mentioned that the Government had agreed to fully sponsor the three students for five years to undergo undergraduate MBBS course after the Department manipulated the last year’s NSEE result which was admitted by the Department official during the meeting at CMO under the chairmanship of Chief Minister TR Zeliang,” stated a press note from ENCSU President M Longre Chang and General Secretary Wangnei Konyak.
It requested the TED and the Government of Nagaland uphold the October 27, 2016, agreement between the ENCSU and the Government signed in the presence of the ENPO, ENSF, ENLU and six federating units of ENSF representatives.
The ENCSU remained irked by the attitude of the Department in handling the matter.
The Union reiterated that “despite appeals in the form of representation and verbally to release and pay the fee, the department seems to be in wild dream when our students are mentally tortured and their career is at stake because of non-payment of the fee till date.”
If the students are victimized in any way due to non payment of fees, the Union asserted that the TED and the Government of Nagaland will be held solely responsible.
