Controversies

In June 2023, approximately 60 engineering students were defrauded after paying ₹1,250 each for purported trainee engineer positions at a power generation company. The students made the payments via QR code after receiving links to job offers that turned out to be fraudulent. The university later filed a First Information Report (FIR) with the cybercrime branch.^[3][4]

In October 2024, five security guards employed at LJIET were arrested after being found consuming alcohol inside a security cabin on the campus premises. The incident was reported by local media, and police confirmed the recovery of liquor bottles and drinking glasses at the scene.^[5]
