Though the Board of Management (BOM) explained to the students the rationale behind the conversion of the institution from a college to a state university, the latter were not satisfied, as they first wanted the board to remove Vice-Chancellor P.B Sharma from his post.

The BOM also resolved that those who do not appear in the rescheduled mid-semester examination on March 29 will forfeit their marks and no further opportunity will be given to them.

Meanwhile, the students held a protest march at Janpath where they were joined by students of Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology (NSIT).

The students have been staging demonstration since March 4 to protest against the conversion of their institution into a university.
