42 eligible list of UFR’s if changed NSUI Goa will stop the functioning of Goa University
We, NSUI Goa wish to bring to your attention a matter of great significance pertaining to the upcoming Goa University Students’ Council elections. We believe that the sudden postponement of nominations is in violation of the SSA-7 statutes of Goa University, and we seek immediate redressal of this issue.
As per SSA-7, it is explicitly mentioned that the nominations for the Students’ Council elections should occur on 30th October until 1 PM as declared by the notification dated on 25th September 2023 , and all eligible candidates should have the opportunity to submit their nominations during this specified period. However, to our dismay, the nominations were abruptly postponed without prior notice or valid reasons, leaving many potential candidates and the student body in a state of confusion and disenchantment.
Also Final list of 42 eligible UFR’s were already declared by Goa University on 28th October 2023 and suddenly trying to change the list by adding new names is directly violating SSA-7 statues of Goa University.
Also as per SSA -7 it is clearly mentioned that students and colleges should comply with the norms and procedure mentioned.
It is cleary written in the SSA-7 statues that expenditure form of the UFR to be submitted to the DSW of Goa University and not the College.
We believe that the postponement of nominations just to include rejected UFR’s names not only goes against the established statutory framework but also raises concerns about transparency and fairness in the election process. As students, we hold our democratic rights in high regard, and any deviation from the prescribed rules undermines the integrity of the election.
In light of the above, we earnestly request the following actions:
1)42 eligible list of UFR’s should be final and no addition names should be done following the SSA-7 statues.
2)Immediate resumption of the nomination process in accordance with the original SSA-7 stipulations.
3)Assurance of a fair and transparent election process, adhering to the principles of democracy and the established statutes.
If are demands are not met NSUI Gao will gherao the administrative block of Goa University and stop its functioning and will also approach the high court to get justice for our students who are the future leaders of our State Goa . Said Naushad .
