SENAPATI, Oct 5 NNN: The controversy surrounding the result of Manipur University has irked the Senapati District Students Association (SDSA).
\nOn Friday, SDSA has expressed its unhappiness over the controversial declaration of Manipur University\u2019s MA (Commerce) fourth semester examination result.
\nSDSA president L.R John has said that even even the highest temple of learning and premier university of the state like Manipur University has succumbed to \u201cbias and anti-tribal tactics\u201d rather than promoting a harmonized state of education.
\nOn September 7, a Manipur University student named SH. Timothy bearing roll number 1016012 was declared the topper in the merit list in the official result. Shockingly, on September 14, in a controversial situation, the Manipur University, Commerce Department again published a second merit list with another double topper namely one KH. Vijayata Devi and Thanjam Gojen Singh bearing roll numbers 1016005 and 1016016 respectively.
\nThe SDSA then questioned the integrity and motives of the concerned Department and Manipur University. \u201cWith no reference of reasons and clarity of the second merit list, it is clear, the collaborative designs of the concerned department and controversial candidates is targeted against the tribal students in the university,\u201d alleged the SDSA today. The SDSA considering the matter seriously and unjustifiable, demands before the \u2018good office\u2019 of the Vice-Chancellor, Manipur University to immediately intervene into the matter, failure which, the students\u2019 body will \u2018not hesitate to react\u2019 accordingly.<\/p>\n\n
