2. Generally when political works within an educational institution
like universities, colleges are done by the students of that institution
is called student politics. Most of the time the political group of the
students is supported by the national political parties. The main
objective of student politics is ensuring the right of the students. It
works as a bridge between the authority and the students. It’s a
process in which students get to involve with the institution in
decision making. For example if hall facilities are needed in a
university, students can demand it in a political process.

5.  Technically we cannot ban student politics as it is a
constitutional right
 Banning student politics would disturb country’s democracy
 It will create a great vacancy in national leadership

6.  Student politics should exclusively work for the welfare of the
students
 We must have zero tolerance for campus violence
 Teachers’ politics is also needed to be reoriented. The teachers should
dissociate themselves from mainstream politics in the campus and
should not use the students to keep their influence in the campus
intact.
 No direct supervision of national political parties
 Strict enforcement of academic rules and regulations regarding class
attendance, examinations, and participation in other academic or
extra-curricular activities
