FTII Students Protest: Unfinished Campus Cripples Studies

FTII students are protesting over an unfinished, non-functional campus lacking essential infrastructure. They allege lost semesters due to inadequate facilities and accuse authorities of neglect. Despite continuous alerts to the SRFTI and the Ministry, no corrective actions have been taken, raising concerns over future student admissions.

Students at the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) have refused to commence their second semester, citing the institute's unfinished campus and inadequate academic infrastructure.

The students claim they have lost a semester due to non-operational facilities, including faulty classrooms and a lack of basic amenities. Despite repeated alerts to authorities, no corrective actions have been implemented.

Recent correspondences reveal the campus's ongoing construction issues, prompting a potential halt in future student admissions. Questions are being raised on why the current cohort was admitted under these conditions.
