Demands for opening of LLM course in Assam University (AU)

HAILAKANDI, April 20: Students of Law faculty (5 years integrated LLB course) and their guardians demanded opening of LLM course in Assam University (AU).

In a memorandum submitted to the Vice-Chancellor by the guardians, requested for opening of the course from the academic session 2009-10 for the interest of the students, as the students intending to undergo studies in LLB will have to face so many hazards including financial losses, as most of the guardians are not capable of it, rather they are agreed to pay the extra fees for the development of infrastructure of the Law faculty, copies of which were sent to the President of India, Chairman, UGC, HRD Ministry and other concerned authorities.

The Vice-Chancellor assured the guardians’ delegation that the matter would be considered. In a press release issued here today, the guardians’ spokesman told that they cannot send their students outside the state as because they would be always in tension due to law and order situation, moreover, financial problems are another factor for them.
