Furthermore, it was demanded advertisement of teaching posts in the various departments without any discrimination. The EC further demanded the administration to take serious note on the provision of basic facilities including clean water and power supply in the entire campus building. The advertisement of vacant houses should be published accordingly with the rules without further delay and construction of the housing society must be done in consultation with the stakeholders. The consensus was achieved in the meeting that the syndicate would be requested to grant permission for the initiation of second phase of the housing society.
