Imphal, October 18 2023:
Manipur University Students Union (MUSU) and student unions of colleges affiliated to Manipur University have jointly announced boycott of the Department for Welfare of Minorities and Other Backward Classes (MOBC) and locked its office on Wednesday.
The students stated that the MOBC has failed to disburse the scholarship of students for two years, while continuing to remain silent even after the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment had sanctioned the funds.
As such, there is strong suspicion of misuse of the fund sanctioned for providing scholarships to students.
Thus, the students decided to boycott and lock the office of MOBC in protest.
