According to officials of Bhupendra Narayan Mandal University, the new fee structure will apply from the 2026–28 academic session. The university increased the fee for the two-year BEd course from about ₹1.05 lakh to nearly ₹1.5 lakh.

After the announcement, several student organizations started protests on campus. They said the Kosi-Seemanchal region mostly has students from farming and low-income families, and such a sharp fee increase will make teacher training unaffordable.

Student leaders demanded that the university administration review the decision immediately. They also urged the vice-chancellor to restore the previous fee structure so that more students can continue their education without financial pressure.

Officials checked the documents on 14 parameters and detected several irregularities. Some candidates showed experience as resource persons, while others claimed unpaid teaching work or positions that were never officially approved. A few teachers reportedly worked in colleges for small honorariums and used those records as experience proof.

Because of these BRABU experience certificate irregularities, the university has sent a report to the University Service Commission. Authorities may cancel appointments and file police complaints in serious cases. Some teachers’ postings and salaries have already been stopped.

Meanwhile, the university plans to open the undergraduate admission portal after April 20 as it prepares for the next academic session.

Members said Prof. Rai is reportedly related to Vice-Chancellor Prof. Dinesh Chandra Rai. They alleged that the decision ignored university rules and demanded a written order to justify the appointment. The BRABU VC Relative Advisor Row intensified when the vice-chancellor said the decision followed discussions with Raj Bhavan, but he did not present any official letter.

The senate meeting turned chaotic for nearly 30 minutes. Members also protested against restricting media entry to the session. They said such restrictions reduce transparency and accountability in university decisions.

Vats said the agenda includes several questionable recommendations. He claimed that some colleges with weak infrastructure received proposals for permanent affiliation. At the same time, better-equipped colleges received only temporary affiliation proposals.

The senate will also review the university’s budget of about ₹1,115 crore. Members will discuss affiliation proposals for nearly 60 colleges. The meeting may also approve new vocational courses. Officials may also consider introducing the Bajika language as a subject.

Vats said he will raise these concerns strongly during the meeting. He also plans to question the delay in student union elections. Some student groups may protest during the session.
