Ruckus over BBA entrance results at MSU
Vadodara: A major commotion broke out at MS University's faculty of commerce on Friday as student leaders affiliated with the NSUI staged a protest, demanding the immediate declaration of individual scores for the BBA entrance examination.
The protest began when NSUI-affiliated student leaders gathered at the BBA building and submitted a memorandum calling for transparency in the result and admission process. The agitation escalated when the protesters threw fake currency notes at programme officials, alleging corruption. The situation turned chaotic with the arrival of the police, who struggled to contain the protesters as they continued to resist law enforcement efforts.
"There were nearly 2,000 students who appeared for the entrance exam, conducted for just 240 seats," said Amar Vaghela, president of NSUI's Vadodara City Unit.
"While the university declared seat numbers of 600 shortlisted candidates for the second round, it has failed to release the marks obtained by all students who took the MCQ-based test."
Vaghela stressed that students have a fundamental right to know their scores. "The lack of transparency has raised serious concerns and suspicions about irregularities and potential malpractices in the admission process," he added.
Responding to the protest, MSU's in-charge vice-chancellor, Professor Dhanesh Patel, who rushed to the scene to defuse tensions, assured students that the university would soon release the individual marks of all candidates who appeared for the examination.
