The sit-in protest by aggrieved students of the Rajiv Gandhi University of Knowledge Technologies (RGUKT) at Basar in Nirmal district in support of their 12-point charter of demands entered the fourth day on Friday as the efforts by the university officials to persuade them to call off the agitation failed to break the impasse till late on Friday evening.
Scores of students of the RGUKT have been agitating on the university campus braving heat and intermittent rain since Tuesday to register their protest against “lack” of basic amenities, “poor quality” of food and shortage of faculty.
Their major demands include provision of better amenities, hygienic food, laptops, renovation of hostel and other buildings, upgradtion of library, and appointment of a full-fledged Vice-Chancellor.
