Sayani Sen is a first-year M.Tech (VLSI) student of MAKAUT. She hails from Durgapur and used to study here with her mother. Her classmates alleged that a teacher had ‘humiliated’ Sayani during the exam. Sayani was not found for quite some time after the exam. Later, she was found lying in a bloody state behind the academic building.

Immediate efforts were made to rescue her and take her to the hospital, but they failed. It was seen that there was an ambulance but no driver. He was practically forced to take him to Haringhata Primary Health Center in a critical condition after the incident. There, the doctors declared him dead. And then a massive protest started in the college premises. Meanwhile, the registrar and interim vice-chancellor are trying to negotiate with the students on behalf of the university authorities. The students are demanding that the university take responsibility for Sayni’s death.

Earlier, the ‘classroom marriage’ controversy was created in this MAKAUT. The pictures of this wedding ceremony at the Haringhata campus of Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology or MAKAUT, created a storm on social media.

In the video, it was seen that the teacher and the student are having auspicious wishes with betel leaves. Everyone is standing next to them. It is like a wedding. Both of them have wedding garlands around their necks. The teacher is wearing a Banarasi saree and the student is wearing a green hoodie. Both are wearing ordinary clothes. Even the vermilion is omitted! In the face of controversy, the teacher claimed that it was not a marriage, it was all a script for a play.


Without cutting the thread, this university is again in the news.
