Thoubal, December 10 2022:
Denouncing the transfer of Thoubal College Botany Department head (HOD) Dr Th Tomba Singh to Kha Manipur College, Kakching; Thoubal College Students' Union has demanded revocation of the order and warned of boycotting the college by the students in case of failing to do so.
According to Union secretary N Rabindra-jit, the number of teachers sanctioned for the Botany department is seven, of which two have retired and one transferred to another college as a principal.
However, instead of sending the replacement teachers to mend the shortage, a transfer order was issued notifying the transfer of the HOD, which is unacceptable.
As such, the Union demanded the authority concerned to revoke the transfer order, failing which the students will boycott the college and also launch other forms of protests.
