BPUT students demand special placement cell



BHUBANESWAR: Members of All Odisha BPUT Association (AOBSA) on Monday staged dharna in front of the Raj Bhavan demanding fulfillment of their eight-point charter of demands including a special placement cell under the university.

Later they submitted memorandum to Employment and Technical Education and Training (ETET) Minister Pratap Keshari Deb, Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT) vice chancellor JK Satpathy and Registrar of the university Mihir Ranjan Nayak to fulfill their demands. In the memorandum, they said that all colleges under BPUT are giving fake campus placement for which the students are suffering a lot. Therefore immediate action should be taken to stop all those activities.

They also demanded the State Government to run BPUT camp office here as around 60 colleges functioning in and around the city. Besides, they stressed on fixed course fee for each college under the university. “Due to excess fees, more than 10 students have committed suicide within a year which is a matter of regret,” said association president Arbinda Pradhan, adding, “If the State Government does not solve our problems, we would take the issue to the streets.”
