Bhubaneswar: In a bid to restore discipline on campus, authorities of Veer Surendra Sai University of Technology (VSSUT), Burla, have taken strict action against nearly 100 students for misconduct, breach of discipline, and poor attendance.
Following complaints and reports of indiscipline, the University’s Disciplinary Committee for Students reviewed each case and made recommendations, which were approved by the Vice-Chancellor. Meanwhile, the Registrar has issued an official notification outlining the disciplinary actions.
The VSSUT notification outlines penalties for the students based on the severity of their offences. Monetary fines ranging from Rs 1,000 to Rs 5,000 have been imposed, and some students will face a reduction in academic grades.
Apart from financial penalties, the students will also face other consequences. They will be barred from participating in university-organised sports tournaments and competitions. Furthermore, they will be ineligible for medals, academic awards, and recognitions for excellence.
