It seems like a bad year for Thapar University, lately it has been in a lot of controversies and here is another one. The Animal Rights Association has filed a law suit against the University for unlawful killing of Pigeons in the Campus area. The whole thing started a few months ago when multiple complaints regarding Pigeon nuisance and Feces Bombing in the classrooms were filed by the students and some teachers. The classrooms (most of em') in the University are non AC and pigeon nests could be seen near the ventilators.

As a result of increasing complaints a committee was set up and they came up with a solution that was to exterminate these pigeons. Although some teachers revolted and said that a better option would be to make all the class rooms AC so that the doors remain closed and pigeons can't build up their nests but the management paid no heed to it. As a result the pigeons were exterminated.

The Animal rights Association authorities noticed a decrease in the pigeon population a month ago and someone in the University blew the whistle and the officials came to know that the university was responsible for these killings, so a case has been filed and the first hearing is due on Monday, 6th June 2011.

When the Animal association spokesperson was questioned by the FNT team concerning the incident he said "We believe that no one has a right to kill these innocent creatures and the university must pay for the killings" he also added that "There were alternatives available but the University chose the one with least cost input". When a teacher was interviewed he said "Well its a brutal act and the University must pay, at the same time the university must make sure that a better solution is adopted as the problem might arise again in the future"

It is being speculated that Thapar will lose the case and a possible fine will be imposed, to make sure nothing like this happens again in future the court might force Thapar University to install AC's in every classroom. If this happens these dead pigeons will become heroes of every student in the college.
