She did not accept the demands of the investigation and attacked us with the Chhatra League. I would like to tell the Vice-Chancellor that you should leave your chair and help the University run as usual. Otherwise, you will be responsible for this stalemate of the university. ”
Protesters will hold a protest concert in front of the Vice-Chancellor’s residence at 6 pm.
On the other hand, the police are on duty in front of the Vice-Chancellor’s residence.
