Muzaffarpur, April 12: Muzaffarpur Institute of Technology (MIT) is set to crack the whip on its unruly students.

The MIT disciplinary committee, headed by principal Dhuruv Prasad, has taken serious note of recent skirmishes between two groups of students. It has asked all students belonging to the 2009 and 2010 batches to be present at the institute with their parents on April 15. Notices have been sent to the guardians already.

Talking to The Telegraph, Prasad said he has taken strong exception to the frequent clashes between two groups of students, which got into a fight on April 6 over the issue of offering chocolates to a girl student on the campus.

“Students have boycotted classes from April 7,” said a senior teacher of the mechanical engineering department on condition of anonymity.

Considering the tense atmosphere on the campus, the institute has postponed the final examination of the 2010 batch, which was scheduled to start from April 15.

Moreover, MIT has also deferred the second periodic term examination of the 2009 batch, that was to start from April 12.

The committee will award black dots on their degrees to prevent them from joining reputed companies as well as state and central government undertakings.
