The Vice Chancellor of North-Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Prof. PK Shukla, has agreed to hold an Emergent Academic Council (EAC) meeting on October 3, 2024, following demands from the NEHU Students’ Union (NEHUSU) and the Khasi Students’ Union (KSU) Unit. The students had been pressing for the meeting to discuss 10 key issues affecting the university.
NEHUSU President, Sandy Sohtun, confirmed that despite initial assurances from the Vice Chancellor about the ongoing grading system, the students remained unsatisfied and insisted on the Academic Council meeting. After negotiations with student leaders, the Vice Chancellor finally agreed to convene the meeting.
