Objecting to the proposed demarcation of the boundary of Modern College, Porompat on April 26; students of the college carried out human chain demonstration in front of the college on Thursday.
Speaking on the sidelines, Modern College Students' Union Game and Sports secretary Nameirakpam Lamyamba Mangang recounted that since its establishment in 1963, the college has been maintaining its exact boundary.
As such, it is unfortunate that a 'patta' has been found issued against the land of the college in the name of an individual.
Thus, he urged the government department concerned to look into the matter and also advised the private individual to retract the move of taking over property of the college.
It is reported that Thongju AC ex-MLA Bijoy Koijam had informed principal of the college in writing that a demarcation of the college's boundary would be carried out on April 26 .
