MADURAI: Days after a video showing a few NEET aspirants getting thrashed in a Tirunelveli coaching centre went viral on social media, the training centre is turning empty now as students have dispersed on their own after the promoter reportedly absconding and the owner of the building is said to have issued vacating orders.
The hostels now remain closed, sources said on Monday. The centre had an enrolment of 91 students including 56 girls. After the incident came to light, officials from the Revenue Department, Social Welfare and District Child Protection Unit inspected the centre and the hostels and held enquiries.
