Around 3,640 students at a Jaipur government college staged a protest, demanding adequate classrooms as they are crammed into just six rooms despite a new building.
Students at a government college in Jaipur gathered outside the campus on Monday, voicing frustration over severe classroom shortages. The protest involved roughly 3,640 learners who are currently forced to share only six rooms for their lectures.
The demonstrators highlighted that a newly constructed building intended to expand the college’s infrastructure remains unused or inaccessible, leaving the existing classrooms overloaded. They argued that the lack of functional space hampers academic quality and violates basic educational standards.
College officials acknowledged the grievances and promised to review the allocation of the new building and explore immediate measures to de‑congest the existing classrooms. No further details on a timeline were provided as discussions continued.
