MALDA, 26 OCT: Students under the newly formed University of Gour Banga (UGB) have not been able to take part in the inter-university sports meet since the past one year and the fate of athletes in different colleges under the UGB seems to be uncertain this year as well.
Some interested students contacted the sports officials of the University of North Bengal so that they could participate in the inter-university sports meet but the students were told that they could join the event only through the UGB.
The UGB was formed last year comprising the colleges of three districts ~ Malda, North and South Dinajpur, which were under the University of North Bengal's control.
After formation of the UGB, the authorities could not start a games and sports event under its banner. As a result, students could not take part in the inter-university sports meet representing UGB.
The registrar of the UGB, Mr Tapas Chatterjee said the University authorities had already formed a sports broad under the leadership of Mr PC Das, a teacher of the UGB's Sanskrit department.
According to Mr Das, after formulating the rules and regulations of the sports board, it will hold another meeting on 28 October to prepare its budget and programmes till 31 March 2010.
“The students would be able to take part in the inter-university tournament from December and January onwards,” Mr Chatterjee said.
