Students should attend classes regularly : Partha

West Bengal Education Minister Partha Chatterjee has said the government wants students to give first priority to studies and attend classes regularly.
"Students should give first priority to studies and union activities would come after that," Chatterjee told media on the sidelines of a function at Dinabandhu Andrews College in south Kolkata last evening.
Disapproving of students with very little attendance heading student unions, Chatterjee said, "We are not in favour of students with 2-3 per cent attendance in colleges leading student bodies."
"We are taking a relook at the issue," the minister said commenting "During my tenure as general secretary of the students' union in my college I seldom skipped classes.
