Mumbai University Senate Members to Seek Governor's Help
Imagine a school's student council, where members bring up important issues.
At a recent meeting for Mumbai University, the people in charge decided not to let the members discuss many of these important issues.
They only allowed one topic to be talked about out of many!
Some members were upset because they wanted to discuss things affecting students and colleges.
They felt like their voices weren't being heard, so they decided to walk out of the meeting in protest.
They are now planning to ask the Governor, who is like the head of all universities in the state, for help.
Despite the issue, the meeting did agree to allow 15 new colleges to open up in different areas.
Mumbai University Senate members will approach the Governor after adjournment motions were denied.
Senate members from various unions opposed the university's decision.
The university cited 2019 regulations to allow only one adjournment motion out of 20 submitted.
Yuva Sena members protested by walking out of the meeting.
The Senate approved a plan to allow 15 new colleges in six districts.
