The administration of Shaheed Bhagat Singh Evening College (SBSEC) in Delhi has decided to bar the Students' Union from independently organizing events, following disturbances during the college's annual fest. The notice, issued on April 27, states that all events will now be managed by the college's cultural and functions committee, which is predominantly composed of faculty members. Students have expressed dissatisfaction with this decision, arguing that it limits their ability to organize programs and that the committees lack genuine student representation. The principal, Arun Kumar Attree, defended the decision, citing safety concerns and the need for better management of funds due to past incidents of internal clashes among union members. He emphasized that the union's primary role should focus on addressing student issues rather than organizing events. This shift in policy has sparked debate among students about their autonomy and the future of cultural activities at the college.
