JH students demand basic amenities

JOWAI: The Kiang Nangbah Government College Students’ Union (KNGCSU) has placed demands for extension of the college building, inauguration of the women’s hostel and repair of the approach road, among others, while alleging that the State Government has failed to fulfill their demands despite several reminders.
According to the KNGCSU, the enrolment in the college has been increasing every year but the college is unable to absorb the students, mostly from the poorer section, due to lack of space.
While demanding renovation of the boys’ hostel, the students’ body mentioned that the women’s hostel funded by the UGC was completed over a year ago but had not been made operational.
The KNGCSU demanded inauguration of the women’s hostel before the start of the new academic session.
The KNGSU also demanded deployment of security guards and installation of CCTV cameras, construction of new college canteen, provision for computer and printer at the union’s office, sanction of more buses for the college and leveling and fencing of the college football field.
