The non-teaching employees generally have access to the official accounts of registered affiliated colleges. Students need to pay multiple visits to colleges to know whether their photocopies have been sent by the university or not.

The delay in the redressal process directly impacts the preparation of students.

In the past, several students had complained of not getting photocopies even as the university maintained no fault at its end and passed on the blame to the colleges.Bamu has jurisdiction over half of Marathwada with a collective student strength of more than 4.4 lakh studying in over 450 affiliated colleges.We also published the following articles recentlyMBA student slits college mates throat in Tamil NaduAn MBA student was arrested in Karur district of Tamil Nadu for slitting the throat of a fellow student.
