Students are Losing their valuable things:
Many students claimed that their valuable things were missing when they came out of the examination hall after their exams. According to them, they have to keep all their belongings outside the examination hall because it is not allowed to take them with us. A student of Punjab University has faced this problem in this regard and she has lost her expensive things.

According to the students, these incidents are happening because there are no CCTV cameras are installed. So, for the thief, it is easy to steal things outside the examination halls. Students are demanding provision of CCTV cameras in each corridor of all the departments. Chairperson of the economics department Upinder Sahwney says, “We are not responsible for the belongings of students. Such thefts were last heard 15- 20 years ago.”The students of the University say that they would soon write a letter to the Vice-Chancellor and the Registrar regarding the same.
