"They should meet me so that we can talk. How can I go on talking in the air", he said when asked if he would be appealing once more to the agitating students to come for talks.

Yesterday Singh had appealed the students to meet him and discuss the whole issue. "I have invited them for talks, but they are not ready. How can I talk to them if they are not willing to".

However, the Minister said the matter now is likely to be taken up in Parliament.
