Deputy Commissioner Purva Garg assures Pondicherry University affiliation continuity for students in Andaman and Nicobar Islands amid deemed university transition discussions.
In an interview with The Wave Andaman, Ray said existing students will continue under Pondicherry University while he presses the Centre, including talks with Dharmendra Pradhan, to halt the deemed university move.
Chief Secretary Dr. Chandra Bhushan Kumar said no formal student representation has been submitted yet on the deemed university transition, even as the administration urged due process and cautioned against law-and-order disruption.
The MP visited the protest site, heard students’ concerns over the proposed deemed-to-be university, and urged submission of a written memorandum while assuring the issue has been raised with the Union Education Ministry.
