Jamshedpur. A reunion of former student leaders was organized at the Co-operative College premises in Jamshedpur. During the event, leaders from various student organizations reminisced about their college days. All of them unanimously expressed concern that student politics has slowed down in recent years, which has led to a lack of seriousness from college and university administrations in addressing student issues.
The former student leaders emphasized that in the past, active student politics played a crucial role in bringing better administration and student welfare initiatives to the colleges and universities. They noted that the absence of active student bodies has left many student concerns unaddressed. They further pointed out that if student politics is revived, it would not only help solve students’ problems but also contribute to the overall development of educational institutions.
On this occasion, the former student leaders expressed their readiness to work alongside the college administration for the development of institutions. They also stated that educational quality and student interests, which were once a focal point in Jamshedpur’s colleges, have slightly declined, but they remain hopeful that efforts will be made to restore the former glory.
The event saw participation from leaders of prominent student organizations such as Vidarthi Parishad, NSUI, United Student Union, Jharkhand Student Front, and others.
