The
State government, in context to the student union elections,
has decided to follow the recommendations of the Lingdoh committee,
constituted for the purpose. From the next session, elections
for student bodies would not be held either directly or indirectly
way. Now, the election of every office-bearer of the student
body would be held as per merit. This would ensure peace in
the campus enabling to improve the educational standards also.
Due to unnecessary interference by the political parties and
anti-social elements, an atmosphere of fear is created in
the colleges during election times. The new recommendations
on holding of student union polls would put an end to such
lawlessness in the campuses. The move of the state government
should be welcomed by one and all. The role of student union
is like a bridge between the administration, the University
and the college. Student welfare activities are carried out
through student bodies however the entry of politics and students
not interested in studies in these bodies, creates a situation
of anarchy. It may be pointed out that the parents/guardians
of students shell out a huge sum of money for proper education
of their wards. The new system of college student elections
would bring much-needed relief to them. Also, it is not true
that the new system would not develop the personality of student
leaders.
