He said that with no positive action forthcoming, the bandh had become the only option. “We have been patient long enough, but the government’s silence has left us with no alternative,” Ramesh remarked.
He explained that more than ₹10,000 crore in dues were pending and urged the government to release at least 50 percent of the amount immediately to ensure college operations could resume.

The delay, he said, had driven institutions into a severe financial crisis, making it impossible to pay teaching and non-teaching staff.
Meanwhile, student unions across multiple districts also launched protests, demanding the timely release of both fee reimbursement and scholarship amounts.

Many students expressed concern over the disruption of academic schedules and examinations.
Ramesh added that with most faculty members unavailable due to the ongoing bandh, conducting exams had become unfeasible.

The federation appealed to the state government once again to clear the dues in phases over the next ten months to stabilize the situation.
Until then, private colleges are likely to continue their indefinite closure, intensifying pressure on the administration to address the financial impasse. (Maxim News)
