Guwahati, July 26: In a formal submission to the National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST), the Kuki Student’s Organisation General Headquarters (KSOGHQ) has requested the transfer of displaced Kuki students from Manipur University to North-Eastern Hill University (NEHU) in Meghalaya and Assam University in Silchar, Assam, in accordance with the Supreme Court of India's order.
According to reports, the KSOGHQ has highlighted that hundreds of students have been unable to continue their education due to administrative delays.
In its letter to the NCST, the KSOGHQ stated, "Despite the Supreme Court's order issued eight months ago, there has been no compliance with the transfer requests, even after repeated follow-ups and applications from concerned students. Many scholars are unable to continue their Ph.D. research online due to complications in obtaining migration certificates from Manipur University. This delay in administrative action has severely affected 284 students who are anxiously waiting for the opportunity to resume their studies."
