Tension gripped the Ramadevi Women’s University on Tuesday after hundreds of students of the Rama Devi Junior College locked the main gate of the university and staged a road blockade in front of it demanding postponement of the Plus Two 1st year annual examination.
The students were objecting to the commencement of the examination as per the scheduled fixed by the college authorities at an earlier date stating the non-completion of course as the reason.
Similarly, the agitating students also objected to the new attendance norm notified by the college authorities to sit in the examination alleging the decision couldn’t be taken at a short notice.
Some students also levelled allegation of manhandling against a male security personnel manning the institution’s entrance, during the protest and blocked the Janpath for hours by burning tyres.
Getting information, police reached the spot and tried to pacify the agitating students.
