Citing the complaint of Satsang Kumar, a resident of Greater Noida, the Noida Police spokesperson said that the institute's centre in Noida, Sector-62 was open till Tuesday but closed an hour before schedule. Later, it was found that the centre had been completely closed.
He claimed that more than two thousand students studied at the centre. Similar allegations have also been made by Manoj Kumar, a resident of Sector Omega-2 of Greater Noida. The abrupt closure of FIITJEE centres has left many students and their parents , who have paid fees running into lakhs of rupees, in the lurch.
