There has been an increasing trend of violence among the traveling students who have started using strong weapons such as sickles.In a recent scuffle among the students in a bus in the Washermanpet area, many persons including a woman sustained injuries and cuts. Transport and college authorities have come together to take sever steps to reduce this trend.
Dr. Kalivaradhan, Principal, Pachaiyappa’s College, informed:
There are no major conflicts when the students are inside the college campus attending classes. Scuffles occur frequently in the MTC buses. Some students have been removed from the college with transfer certificates.A group of 20 faculty members have been monitoring students’ bvehaviour. The parents are not aware of their sons’ misdeeds. Letters written to the parents do not reach them. So, there is a plan to send SMS to the parents’ cell-phones. The cell number of the monitoring group will be given to the parents.
Presidency College Principal, Mr. M. Mohammad Ibrahim informed:The students become union members as soos as they join the college as insisted by the senior students commuting in the same bus. In the face of a scuffle, the senior students escape somehow and the first year students are caught. The junior students have to be advised and their attention should be diverted to more creative activities such as music, literature, and sports. It would be better to install surveillance camera in the bus routes covering the various colleges.
