Students' union at JNU to boycott the attendance norm

With JNU introducing the mandatory attendance rule, the students of the Jawaharlal Nehru University Students' Union have decided not to mark their attendance at all.NUSU president Geeta Kumari, in a meeting with JNU vice-chancellor, said, "we explained to the administration how such a surveillance is going to curtail academic freedom and destroy JNU culture". "We explained how students of the campus attend lectures not just at classrooms, but also at dhabas and hostel mess. Learning is a 24X7 process for us. The VC, however, insisted on the adoption of compulsory attendance model of IITs," Geeta Kumari said. During the meeting, she also submitted a memorandum with around 2500 signatures.JNUSU joint secretary Shubhanshu Singh said "we have started a campaign on the move in some classes. Some professors are also taking part in the campaign".Yesterday, JNUSU announced the boycott of the attendance.
