The construction work of the institution incurred heavy expenditure and electricity connection is not done in the campus yet.
The students and guardians of the locality earlier expressed happiness and kept their hopes alive but now their hopes seem to have fizzled out into thin air.
Several demands from various organizations of the locality to open the institution for the students were raised to but all these went in vain.
Meanwhile, the president of Pathsala Bazar Committee, advocate Giridhar Choudhury and secretary Jiten Talukdar have recently raised demands to the authority to make early arrangement for opening of the institution for the greater interest of the students.
