Following a long-standing demand of students of Regional College of Management (RCM), Governor S C Jamir on Wednesday directed the Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT) to issue original certificates.

 More than 200 students of RCM took out a rally from their college to Raj Bhawan. After a scuffle between the students and the police, a group of students managed to meet Jamir. Acting on their complaint, the Governor instructed the BPUT and the State Government officials to facilitate provisioning of certificates as soon as possible.

 BPUT Registrar Mihir Nayak said steps will be taken in this regard. As RCM college withdrew legal cases against BPUT last month, the OJEE will now verify the credentials of the students.

 The matter will be forwarded to the Policy Planning Body (PPB) of the State Government, who will take a final call. Jamir has also instructed the PPB to inquire into the matter and take action if necessary.
