Enhancement of Internship allowance for students pursuing B.V.Sc & A.H. degree in SKUAST Jammu
Dear Editor,
I am highly grateful to you if you are kind enough to allow me a little space in your daily newspaper “State Times¨ to highlight the grievances of internship students who are pursuing internship at SKUAST Jammu in B.V.Sc & A.H. I Milan Sharma (CR) on behalf of students of B.V.Sc & A.H. pursuing internship would like to draw the kind attention of the concerned Chancellor and Vice- Chancellor of SKUAST Jammu for enhancing the internship allowance. The students are getting Rs 6000/- per month internship allowance which is lowest among all states in India. It is gross injustice with the students of SKUAST Jammu as such amount is very low to meet our daily expenditures and travel expenses. The matter has already been brought to the notice of university administration but nothing has done till date.
* Govt. of West Bengal vide order no. 2669/1(8)-ARD-18013/8/2022 dated 03/10/2023 has enhanced internship allowance for the internship students of B.V.Sc & A.H. of ‘West Bengal University of Animal & Fishery Sciences’ from Rs 9000 to Rs 20,000 per month with back date effect from 01/01/2023.

On basis of the above cited orders , we the students of B.V.Sc & A.H. SKUAST Jammu wish that the said allowance need to be enhanced from Rs 6000 to Rs 25000 per month with back date effect from 01 Jan 2023. We hope that the concerned authorities will address the issue on priority basis.
