Tamilisai Soundararajan holds discussions with RGUKT in-charge Vice-Chancellor and faculty members
I have come to visit the Rajiv Gandhi University of Knowledge Technologies (RGUKT) at Basar in Nirmal district to give moral support to the students of the institution as a mother to see to it that their problems are resolved in a time-bound manner, said Governor Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan.
Several mothers of the aggrieved students called me to visit the institution to look into the problems faced by their children for quite a long time, she told the media after interacting with students during her visit to the RGUKT (IIIT Basar) on Sunday morning.
The Governor reached Nizamabad after an overnight train journey from Kacheguda, Hyderabad, in the early hours of Sunday. She travelled to Basar by road where she offered special prayers at the historic temple of Goddess Gnana Saraswati in Basar, before visiting the RGUKT.
The Governor had breakfast with the students at the hostel mess and later went around the RGUKT campus, where students agitated to press for their 12-point charter of demands in the recent past.
She gave a patient hearing to the students during her interaction with them at their hostel rooms even as the students waved their hands in an affectionate gesture.
The students’ grievances ranged from the quality of the food in the hostel messes to the non-supply of laptops and non-availability of latest subject books in the library.
She held discussions with the RGUKT in-charge Vice-Chancellor Prof Venkataramana and the faculty members.
