New Delhi: The students of Jamia Millia Islamia on Wednesday, September 27th registered a strong protest against the ousting of PhD Scholar Dhrupadi Ghosh.
The students gathered in front of central canteen and after marching through several departments, marched to the Vice Chancellor office to submit a memorandum signed by 2000 students demanding the reinstatement of ousted PhD Scholar.
The VC has assured a delegation of PhD scholars said that on the grounds that Dhrupadi Ghosh has completed two years of research in the university, he will reconsider the decision of PhD cancellation.
The Jamia administration had initially issued a notice and canceled the PhD registration of Dhrupadi Ghosh without giving any reasons and explanation.
The order issued by Dean Prof N.U. Khan has given reference to a letter order issued by the registrar on September 7 earlier this month, whose contents have been kept confidential.
Ghosh, a PhD scholar in the Department of Sociology, received a letter on Friday morning notifying that her registration has been canceled with effect from September 7, 2017. The letter cites no reason for cancellation neither has the PhD scholar received any prior notification in this regard.
Ghosh is also a student activist and has been vocal about issues related to payment of dues to workers, implementing labour laws in the university, attack on female students by male university guards and police entering the campus without permission.
The University administration has accused the student of violating the statutory norms of the University at the time of admission.
