Court has summon the functionaries of Kamakhya Pemton College , Hiyangthang including its Principal and Vice Principal, Vice Chancellor and Registrar of Manipur University and the Principal of Mayai Lambi College in connection with a money suit filed by a 24 years old student Shasikumar Sharungbam blaming the authority for sabotaging his career.

Shasikumar Sharungbam, a student of B.Sc of Mayai Lambi College passed both 1st and 2nd Semester exam in 2013 and 2014 respectively and already got Registration Number issued by the University as 13381161 in 2013.  Shasikumar Sharungbam however stopped attending the college after appearing the 2nd semester exam as he wanted to undergo coaching for preparing the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) exam. In 2015, Shasikumar Sharungbam wanted to complete BSc while attempting for NEET exam.

Later, Shasikumar Sharungbam shifted to Kamakhya Pemton College and submitted all required documents, admission fee and passport size photograph. He was not immediately admitted as he was advised to wait for obtaining approval for transfer of college from the Manipur University authority. In the meantime he continued his coaching.

What surprised and embarrassed Shasikumar Sharungbam was that he was declared to have passed the 3rd semester exam from Kamakhya Pemton College , Hiyangthang in 2015 (November) which he had not appeared. When approached he learnt that he passed the examination under a roll number 3106863 with a new Registration Number 13281782 issued in 2013 by the Manipur University authority.

On getting two registration certificates which according to the regulation of the Manipur University authority is not possible, Shasikumar Sharungbam with the help of his father approached the Manipur University authority to find out if his son was issued a fresh registration. As they failed to get the right reply he then sought information regarding on how his son was issued a fresh registration certificate through RTI. The student Shasikumar Sharungbam was shocked to learn that no such registration could be issued as he had already obtained Registration Number while admitting at Mayai Lambi College and that it was a violation of rules and regulation to transfer to another college in the middle of his BSc course.

As his career has been sabotaged Shasikumar Sharungbam filed a Money suit to the Court of Civil Judge (SR Division) pleading to compensate a sum of Rs. 60,00000/-.

The Court summoned the Principal and Vice principal of Kamakhya Pemton College, Vice Chancellor and Registrar of Manipur University and the Principal of Mayai Lambi College to file the statement to the plea by Shasikumar Sharungbam.
