The Ministry sources dismissed media reports which claimed it has sought a report from the Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) and Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) on the "sequence of event that transpired on the campus."

"The Vice Chancellors of Jamia Millia Islamia and Aligarh Muslim University did not meet HRD officials at Ministry and no formal report has been sought," Ministry of Human Resource Development sources said.

Earlier, media reports had said that HRD Ministry has sought reports from two Universities "over the sequence of events that transpired on the campuses" and that Vice Chancellors of "both the varsities visited the HRD Ministry and presented the facts".
