Following the assurance of the Congress MlA Rajkumar and Congress leader Saket Bahuguna, Uttarakhand Technical University (UTU) students, who were protesting against the university, have called off their strike with immediate effect on Saturday.
In his address Saket said that students should avoid staging protest immediately. Instead of doing so they should first apprise their woe to their head of department. Taking cognizance on their demand State Government has discussed their issue with university. Students were demanding that university should promote BTech, BPharma and llB students in next semester and they should be allow to appear in back papers free of cost.
Even university has failed to intimate the students about their result in july so that they could save their one year. Meanwhile students have already submitted fee for next exam. With this dillydallying attitude of university administration, students are feeling cheated so university should withdraw their decision with immediate effect.
Saket informed that state Government has already discussed their matter with university and they agreed to fulfill the agitating students’ demand. With this assurance agitating students have called off their strike with immediate effect.
