Students, locals protest against MANIT administration for converting institution into quarantine centre

Students and locals held protest outside Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology on June 1 against the administration's decision of converting the institute into a quarantine centre.

Arrangements are being made for the stay of 10 thousand people as COVID-19 cases are expected to spike in Bhopal.

Students complain that their placements will suffer after the institute will be converted into a quarantine centre.

One of the students vacating the hostel said, "I am a third year student at MANIT, but I am forced to take all my things from the hostel as it is being converted into a quarantine centre and there is no surety how safe our things will be here.

We are definitely against this."
