Students protest against online admission mode

Updated on: Wednesday, June 15, 2011

Students seeking admission in various undergraduate and post-graduate courses at Shia PG College created a ruckus on Tuesday morning. They were protesting against the online mode of filling up application forms.

"The online process of filling up online forms is tiring. We have to first go to the bank to generate a challan, which takes time. The college should also sell the admission forms manually,'' said a student.

College principal MS Naqvi said, There has been no complaint from the students regarding the online forms. In fact, we have received an overwhelming response. Students are happy and are enjoying the new process." He added that the college has received nearly 5,000 application forms.

Another student agitated with the online process and said, "Apart from filling up the form, there is nothing online. One has to go to the bank for generating challan and then come up to fill up the form. We then need to take a print out of the printed form and post it."

Shia PG College introduced the online method of filling up application form from this year after Lucknow University introduced the online mode. However, a large number of students were of the view that the online is more troublesome.
