Expressing concern over the two-month impasse at Manipur University, Deputy Chief Minister Y Joykumar today appealed to the protesting students and teachers to cooperate with the HRD Ministry and the state government in "restoring normalcy" at the institute.
Academic affairs have been under suspension at the central university since May 30 as protesters, under the aegis of Manipur University Students Union and Manipur University Teachers Association, have been seeking the removal of Vice Chancellor A P Pandey over allegations of irregularities.
At a press meet this morning, Joykumar said, "We are very concerned about the future of the students as the impasse has entered its third month. The academic activities must have suffered a huge setback because of the stir."
