As the admission season is nearing, Delhis Ambedkar University, is facing the ire of
students over its medium of examination for its entrance exams. The students have
been demanding the university to print the entrance exam papers in not only English
but also Hindi, especially on account of it being a state university.

Over the past week, the campus has seen many protest, and even a referendum.
Students claim that since the university has 85 per cent of its seats reserved for
students from Delhi Hindi should be a medium of examination.

Krantikari Yuva Sangathan had even organised a referendum on the issue and
according to reports, of the 400 students who participated, 92 per cent voted in the
affirmative.

The University on the other hand claims that when the varsity was formed, it was
decided that the medium of instruction would be English. The idea was to move to
other languages but it remains English. The management claims that till the time
they make adequate arrangement, they cant move in this direction straight away.
They agree that the demand of the students is legitimate, but they need time to
make it possible.
