Students of Delhi University wore black ribbons in protest and demanded a rollback of the four year undergraduate programme in the university. Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) has also called for a dharna on January 15 and a strike on January 17.
The students’ group has decided to send college-wise memoranda to the vice chancellor through the respective principal’s office demanding for the rollback of the new undergraduate system. DU Teachers’ Association (DUTA) has also resolved to prepare an action plan for further agitation against FYUP. The student activists from ABVP visited various colleges campaigning against the anti-student reforms and urged students to get together for a mass movement. They distributed black ribbons while campaigning in their respective colleges and held two public meetings in colleges in North Campus. DUTA is also planning to sit on dharna on January 13 and hold public meetings to give a boost to the students’ protest.
