We did not create a ruckus inside the campus. We just wanted our long-pending demands to be heard. We wanted to meet the VC and hand him a list of our demands. But we were stopped by the guards after which we raised slogans in the meeting room.A varsity official said the authorities have assured the protesters that 3 of their 4 demands would be met as soon as possible.Rajendra Singnapurkar, a university official, told reporters that 3 of the 4 demands put forward by the agitating ABVP members could be met over the next 2-3 days.However, he said action on the controversial rap song might take time as the matter was before a high-level committee, which is yet to submit its report. "We are working to ensure that the real culprit is identified and punished," he said.An alleged offensive rap song was shot on the premises of SPPU by rapper Jadhav last month, without permission from the authorities, triggering a row on campus.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
