| | BGSBU seeks 'permission' from University authorities to hoist Tricolor on I-Day | | | Early Times Report
RAJOURI, Aug 13: Some students of College of Engineering and Technology (COE&T) of Baba Ghulam Shah Badshah University (BGSBU) have approached the university authorities to hoist national flag on the occasion of Independence Day this year.
Pertinent to mention that since the inception of BGSBU about 9 years ago and despite being funded by University Grant Commission (UGC) university authorities have never celebrated Independence Day or Republic Day in the university campus.
The reason was reportedly domination of Kashmiri students who instead of celebrating these national days have several times raised anti India and Pro Pakistan slogans in the university.
